After I cleaned it, it just didn't look good. It had some streaks and it was "dull" looking.

Oh, OK. But you need to realize that metal plating is that way right out of the bath. Now you've made it into a work of art, which I suppose is even more interesting for most folks to enjoy today.

The painted chassis looks great, but I've run into enough bad chassis grounds from rivets, screws, and other mounts in the past that I would never risk creating that situation on my own. But then I've never tried to restore a radio or TV to visual perfection before. Good job, Chris!
