I painted one chassis. A philco 90. Only because it was totally filthy and severely rusted in some areas where some unknown substance, that vaguely smelled like bar-b-que grill grease, had been spilled all over it (and the cabinet). Hated to do it, but it would have been hideous otherwise. All the others I clean as well as I can and polish anything that's easily polished.
