I finished the cabinet this evening. Two coats of lacquer: first coat, 400 grit wet and dry paper rub down, second coat, 600 grit paper followed by 0000 steel wool. The cabinet looks quite respectable now.

Before I head back to the chassis testing, I have run into a problem with the shadow mask. The black rubber surround seal has melted and amalgamated with the shadow mask. I tested removing a small portion at the corner with alcohol aided with a razor blade. The alcohol dissolves the red-brown paint. I dare not use the razor as it easily scratches the paint.

Any suggestions how to remove the rubber without removing the paint?
