So, after a few hours of work...

Not even straight acetone would do anything to this 16B. Apparently it was painted, then coated with polyurethane.
This cabinet was a waste of money. It's going to be set aside.

This 66B was painted as well, but I am starting to see wood on top and a little bit on front. This will take multiple strippings to get it ready for refinishing.
This is too much like work!
I did not get to the other three cabinets (yet). I think the RCA 6T2 and Philco 91B cabinets will be easy to strip. I had set the 41-KR aside five years ago as...it, too, was painted and the paint on it is also very stubborn.
