Philco 46-480 Cabinet Restoration
#12

I’ve finished reflocking the backplate for the glass, and have it all installed. I really wasn’t certain as to what kind of adhesive to use, but 3M spray-on adhesive worked just fine! Now all that’s missing is the “Philco” decal. My question about which size of decal to use is probably buried too deep into this thread for everyone to see, so I’ll create a new thread to ask that question. The decals for the control knobs still need to dry a bit, but I couldn’t resist sharing!

   Anyhow, it’s really starting to look amazing! I’m excited by the progress.

    Here's a before and after of the glass backing plate, as well as a photo with it all put together.
