1936 Philco 116B Tombstone Radio - Cabinet Questions
#9

I was looking over at Radio Daze and I found this (See Link Below):

https://www.radiodaze.com/van-dyke-brown...mftft-vdb/

Would the Lacquer Toner Spray in the link above work for replacing the missing lacqer toner on  my cabinet? 

When I was looking at my cabinet carefully I realized that my cabinet would be fairly easy to refinish as the areas that don't need the lacquer sprayed onto it (the front of the cabinet) can be easily masked off with some news paper and painters tape and then spray on the lacquer Toner and then use some gloss clear-coat lacquer ontop to give it a factory look, and then refinish the front of the cabinet separately with regular stain and lacquer clear-coat on top (which I would put the new Philco water slide decal on before putting the clear-coat on, and the clear-coat would then protect the new Philco water slide decal).

Does this sound like a good plan of attack for my cabinet?

I'd try replacing the bulb first and if that doesn't do it, then change the 35Z5 and see if the problem goes away.NostalgiaRadioTime — 12:28 AM
