There are radios that I think look too "shiny". I'm talking about the 1930s. I think they would have to look matte. Like antique furniture. Well, it's a personal opinion. I can be wrong. Of course.

I need to know the product to clean the rust. I have tried some products, but I don't quite like them.

I think Philco had a zinc-based finishing touch. It gave it a color between gray and green.

I will appreciate your opinion !!!!
