Biggest problem seems to be that the printer ink is water soluble and it doesn't take much to destroy it. I intend to let the ink dry, then spray the paper with either varnish, poly or lacquer. That may seal it you think?
Anyway, nice projects...

Maybe, certainly worth trying.
I have some opaque white water-slide decal paper I've used before to make these. They've held up well.
I think the chassis is just bare steel.
I also have this 26X56 model which has a copper plated chassis mounted vertically. It has a 16GP4 CRT.
Weird that they used both a circular 16GP4 and rectangular 16KP4 in the same model year. There's also a model with this same chassis and a 19AP4.
I plan on restoring all 3 sets at the same time.
