Very nice. I'd call that finished!

The label material came in today. Looks very promising. Too tired to mess with them. After a good night's rest, I'll tackle them.

I've never seen that latch before, I wonder if it was added by someone, or maybe only the early sets had them?

I just checked some pictures of other sets and one does show a latch, I don't recall one on my set, but it's been years since I had the lid off, maybe I just forgot.
I don't think I'd remove it, if you must make it look better maybe you can apply some paint stripper to it to remove the lacquer, it's far enough from the cabinet that should be possible. |

I'm pretty sure that the latch is factory stuff. I'll let everybody know how I got it cleaned up.

I stripped the finish off the hatch, grille, and face plate yesterday. After cleaning them up and sanding them, I'll then filled the dents, etc with wood putty. Then I'll sand them smooth again.
The cabinet is under clamps and glue right now. That will be ready to strip tomorrow. Last edited by Crist Rigott; 03-28-2017 at 11:39 AM. |

Thanks for the heads up but where I used the filler are only on the mask, grille, and hatch. These were solid in color with no grain showing and a dark brown color. The rest of the cabinet will have the grain showing just like it was before me. Here are some pictures of the TV when I first brought it home. It'll be like this only a new finish.
