Zenith 12a58 cabinet makeover.
#2

Wow Fred, simply exquisite. All your refinished cabinets you’ve recently posted are better than factory! So I would like to pick your brain if I might. Do you have professional spray equipment? I have a Philco 37-116 floor model that someone kept a houseplant on and naturally it leaked water causing a noticeable damaged area. The rest of the cabinet has the usual number of dings so probably could use refinishing. I don’t think I will have luck matching the toner and really don’t want to try doing the whole cabinet with rattle cans. If I try just redoing the top, I doubt it can be blended in well with the rest of the cabinet because of the unique color of the toner!

IF can wire size and Rubber mounts?
Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
