There are a number of threads in the Cabinet Restoration section about refinishing radios. The short strokes are that after stripping the grainy woods have a sanding sealer applied, followed by a grain filler (some folks do use sanding sealer to fill grains...there are a multitude of techniques people use), followed by a toning lacquer to achieve the correct color, followed by multiple gloss clear lacquer coats with some level of sanding and rub out to achieve the desired gloss level.

RadioDaze has the decals.

Cheers,
Bob
