Chuck,

I haven't posted to this thread for some time. You did as I suggested at the beginning and used a good furniture wax and a little elbow grease. The cabinet and grille cloth cleaned up great. Just needs some slight touch up and then leave it alone. The chassis cleaned up very well. As suggested take the screen surround (mask) with you when you do the paint matching. Careful masking when you spray should make for a nice original look. Use the blue 3M masking tape. I hope you were able to carefully clean up the knobs and glue the broken one together. Then it's on to the technical side of this restoration.

-Steve D.
