Refinishing the chassis compartment
#9

I did kind of what was mentioned above on my 41-280

Vac, wipe and at first a small sample area of GoJo. In the end a good slop of GoJo and lots of wiping out with paper towels. It is a bit rough so tore up the towels some

It did not hurt the decals and other tags glued inside. The GoJo feeds the wood and looks a lot better.

I unscrewed the speaker mounting frame and pulled out the grill backing so I would not get the cloth gooped up and could get to the back of the grill bars. I also did the GoJo treatment to the rear exposed face and edges of the speaker mounting frame.

My first cabinet redo so not proceeding too fast. Reading a lot before I venture forth.

Plan on looking over a bunch of the redone ones at Dayton this year. Had not paid much attention to them before.
