I picked up another Philco 41-295, it’s in better condition than the last one. Only payed $40 for it. I have already striped the cabinet, with lacquer thinner, and acetone (50-50) it cleaned up nice. Used a sanding sealer from mohawk, and then grain filler. Some light sanding, then some medium walnut toner from Mohawk. Then just started ultra flo clear lacquer. But I need to replace some decals like on the faceplate, and also the Philco logo on the front of the cabinet. 

I ordered the decals from “Radiodaze, but the ones that came in were not right. They don’t list them by model number, so I’m not sure which ones are the right ones. Any help would be very appreciated.

Will upload pictures later.
