RADIOBAR COLORS
#7

Hi Keith

One of the advantages of being the administrator of this site...I can edit anyone's posts. :-) (However, let it be known that I do NOT edit posts 99% of the time...I will only edit when I feel it is necessary to assist with photos or links, as above.)

The finish of your Radiobar cabinet has clearly darkened with age, and if left alone, may begin taking on a greenish tint in years to come.

But you aren't going to let that happen. Icon_biggrin

I suggest stripping and then using Mohawk Medium Walnut overall. It appears also, that the white wood trim immediately surrounding the control panel and grille is darker, and should be Perfect Brown, Maison Brown, or Extra Dark Walnut.

One man's opinion...YMMV.
