Philco Chassis Corrosion?
#9

( hee hee)!! Im not a purist either! I dont much care what the chassis' look like, and my many customers dont either. All they want is that the Radios work great again! And I most certainly dont rebuld bakelite condenser blocks, its pointless to me. And once you use your beer-backwash to clean the chassis best as possible, you can cut both ends out of the aluminum cans, take scissors, cut down one side of the can, and make your own "tube shields" to fit any Radio, nomatter brand, race, color or creed! BEER, is one of my most used vintage radio restoration items!! As you repair many sets in the future, you will also learn that it is a necessity for "any" workbench!! Icon_wink
