Philco 42-PT94/95 Grill replacement options
#9

Winkydink, I know this is a bit old of a post but your grill is actually better than many I have seen. Cleaning and repainting should do just fine. Messing with the grill structure with heat or anything else I think is futile and will probably result in more damage than correction. Let us know if it worked. With good exemplars of nice ones, it would seem fairly simple to make more. Not a money making proposition but should be simple. A plaster mold of the original made up by pushing the original down into it. Remove and cast a new one of a resin. Paint and away you go. You could reuse the mold to make many. Would be fun to try.
