If you lose the Philco decal during the stripping process, reproductions are available from several sources. They are water slide decals. Make sure you try to save the manufactures lable on the bottom if you can. If you have a scanner, you can scan it first just in case and make a new one to apply later if need be. Texasrockers suggestion of using appliance paint is a good one and is what i use for a hard shiny paint job like the original. The three popular colors are black, white and almond for antique white. No primer is needed for appliance paint and since it dries slowly you shouldnt have any dull spots like you would have with regular spray paint so less clean-up and polishing afterwards. The speaker slats will be the hardest to strip due to the small confines of the paint.
