Ive had very good luck polishing & cleaning bakelight by cleaning first with Isopropal alcohol, (clean several times first,-that grunge keeps comin off layer after layer until bounty type paper towel comes up clean with no more residue). Repolish the bakelight with "Glayzit", several coats, rubbing out the final finish. Glayzit is available at AES, and radiodaze last I checked?
