I'm about to begin recapping 2 Philco 620's. For the electrolytics, I was going to order a 10uF 500V and 20uF 500V. For all other caps I was planning on ordering all at 630V. Is this reasonable? I'm new to working on these old radios, and want to make sure I'm not missing anything.

Also, is it generally true that the mica caps will not need to be replaced? I'm placing an order and want to make sure it is complete.
