Troubleshooting a Philco 47-1230
#19

Arron, I think your right normally, but Have you ever had to try and clean something that went through a house fire? Unfortunately, it isn't just filth. The smoke gets BAKED on and it doesnt easily come off. It's kind of like when they bake on the paint job on a car, it makes it stay alot better. Anything I have cleaned that went through the fire doesnt just come off with a little normal cleaning. But I will try the TSP hopefully it will help some, if not I will try it with some scrubbing. So far as I said the only way it has started to come off (the shiny metal parts of the chassis used to be black like the rest) is with steel wool or wire brush. Kinda scary considering as you know small pieces of metal come off those as you clean. I do appreciate yours and everyone's input though, I think it will all help. Thanks, Again.
