ZENITH WALTON RESTORE/FINISHED!
#4

Got it tore down and started the chassis , stripped the outer dial assembly and painted black , decal will be applied and cleared over, chassis is stripped and bead blasted because of rust, will paint hammered  copper finish like original, tuning condenser is remover and will be cleaned and polished, all cans removed but don't know exactly what I should do on those because there not shinny or real smooth from factory, just a flat swirl looking aluminum, any suggestions on those? Should just recap with modern caps showing or reuse old wax cases? Nobody going to see them Icon_eek ?
