I watched a guy on YT do this to his rather nasty looking Philco, and I was amazed with the results! The Gojo Creme is about $2.00 for a good sized jar at your local auto parts store. It cleans the veneer right up! I highly recommend it. Just get a soft cloth and a small helping of the stuff and gently rub it with the grain on your Philco's veneer.
"Washing" a cabinet with go-jo is a great way to remove the years of attic dirt. It gives you a better idea just what condition your cabinet is in and whether or not you want to refinish.
I have had many cabinets that literally "came alive" after being cleaned with go-jo.
Is GOOP the same stuff? Looks the same and smells the same. Its gojos competitor, I found Goop at Walmart, they didn't have gojo. I use it for my hands. Haven't tried yet on wood cabinets.

My first to radios were a disaster and Gojo would have done nothing.
Yes its just for dirt, wax build up? , grime , grudge, grease, grit, finger prints, oil, latex paint, crayons, ink, ant piss, dust, lite water marks, bullet holes, cigar burns, cigarette burns, dryed whiskey, spilt soda, beer, tea, coffee, also repels spiders , roaches, piss ants, silverfish , etc. Just messen around Edisla
I use Non pumice Goop and 0000 steel wool. I just cleaned up a 46-1203 last night and it came out looking great! In fact I think I'll change my avatar from the refinished 48-1256 to the original finish 46-1203!
