I lucked out with the knobs too. There are solid brass rather than plated so they can handle aggressive polishing. Admiral also used plated which are often worn down to the silvery base metal.

Do you use contact cleaner on the cabinet? If so what does that do?


Thanks to azbigsam I have the correct speaker and a whole chassis for another project.


That's better

No, it's there to show a reflection in the shiny surface.
