Philco 645K Refinish
#13

Thanks for showing me the thread on chassis stamps. I've previously tried several unsuccessful ways to transfer inkjet print to metal chassis--even tried using fabric transfer paper. I didn't have any freezer paper, so I tried this with waxed paper. It makes a good facsimile of a rubber stamp.

I'm sure that with the right transfer paper, it could reproduce higher-quality print, such as the printed part numbers on top-of-chassis chassis components.

As for the dark-colored trim on the 645X cabinet: It looks better in real life than in the photos, but I feel that it still doesn't look right, and I'll redo it this fall.
