I wasn't planning on restuffing the caps, but when I cleaned the wax off and saw the nifty blue font against the orange tube, I changed my mind.
I know it would be more authentic to leave the caps coated in wax, but they just looks too nice all cleaned up I think.




Good times


I used brown hot glue to seal the new caps in the old tubes. Here are the new HV caps installed.



I cut open the electolytics for restuffing too. I was surprised to see this single section 120uF @ 150volt was stamped as a dual 20uF @ 400.
