1935 GE A-65 restoration
#5

The choice of grillecloth isn't as bad as some I've seen, If it were dyed brown it would look fairly appropriate in a radio, though not that radio. Brown burlap, tan burlap, red, green, or blue velvet, corduroy, plaid shirts, terrycloth towels, old drapes, I've seen it all.
As for paint stripper I've never been happy with most of the safe strippers I've tried, some of those old paint concoctions you run into won't comer off with anything short of methylene chloride paint stripper or acetone. I actually like the design of this set, while not elaborate it is still a nice, clean, design with nice inlaid veneer. It also still has at least two of the original knobs I think.
Regards
Arran
