Morzh,
I don't know what the deal was with people painting old radios. I blame home style magazines though. They often have articles about giving your old furniture new life by painting it. I can't see how anyone would think that what they did to this radio was attractive though.
Arran,
I've used more harsh chemicals in the past and they do work more quickly, but this stuff doesn't stink up the house and seems to work just as well if you give it enough time. I like the design of this set as well. Like you said it isn't elaborate but it is a nice, clean design. It just has that "something" about it. It does indeed have two original knobs. I'll have to see about coming up with a couple more. From other pictures I've seen all four were the same.
