Hmmm, I wonder how well that would work to fill voids in broken bakelite ?

That actually looks like a fairly easy refinish. That old lacquer just mels off with even mild strippers. Then some grain filler, minwax red mahogany stain and some lacquer. Looks like the controls area is in good enough shape to just touch up and preserve the decals.

Not that I'm up for doing it - at least not until next year. It's way too cold

BTW What CRT is that ?
