Philco 38-12 Cabinet Strip
#14

Really appreciate all the secrets, although I'm not sure I'll have as good a product because I don't have a spray gun and have never worked with beeswax before.  I like using Danish oil on my other projects, but was actually a little reticent to do so with a vintage radio, since I thought it might be a safety issue to use a flammable, oil-based product on surfaces adjacent to aging electronics.  It seems like you and others prefer oil-based, so I'll likely proceed with Danish oil, but will incorporate some of your other techniques/products in the course of my restoration.  Again...MANY thanks for sharing.  Not everyone is always willing to do so, which is understandable, but this will definitely get me started in the right direction.  Much appreciated.
