I picked up a Queen Elizabeth 11-11
#16

   Well this week  I tackled the cabinet on this nice radio.. I cleaned it with gojo and wiped it down with a damp cloth.
I then gave it a coat of Trade secret scratch remover. After  I let it sit for about 1/2 hour,, I wiped it down again.. that all it took to look like this.  All original knobs,  grill cloth, and  finish.
 I like the original finish and it sounds very good in the cabinet. I had to show you my radio lamp also.

 I now have the radio recapped and it sounds very good. the cabinet is original and I hope to keep it that way
by just doing a good cleaning with go jo and a little touch up.
 This one is a keeper; at least for me.

Another beautiful set, Dan! Color me Impressed!!!!!! Icon_thumbup Icon_thumbup Icon_wave
