I'd try mechanic's waterless hand cleaner(no pumice). If it is painted metal, a good washing with Fantastic or some other grease cutter might work too. Test a spot on different painted areas with a cotton swab to see if any color comes off though.

I obviously do not want to do anything to damage it, but do you think that the oil painting restoration techniques will work? Its still a great piece, but would be outstanding with "brighter, cleaner" color. Any other reccomendations including leaving it alone are welcome. http://tinyurl.com/28yxm Thanks Eric Boyles Crossett, AR _______________________________________________ Phono-l mailing list [email protected] http://t2.cwihosting.com/mailman/listinfo/phono-l_oldcrank.com
