Hi,
I had a dusty RF2200 that I cleaned off with a painters brush, but
there is a covering of grime that shows up under the right light. How
do I safely wash these modern plastic cabinets and leave a nice, deep
glow like the sets originally had? I can keep the washing solution away

from any problem areas, but don't quite know what to use to get the
desired affect. The RF2200 was dusted off because the dust gets into
the switches (like the SW1 switch) and eventually the switch fails.
Having cleaned all the switches, (the RF2200 is quite easy to work on)
the set works perfectly, but I'd like to get it looking great too. Any
help would be greatly appreciated.
rgds,
Mark S.

I have one here that's in the same condition currently. I've owned it
since new it's been cleaned more than a few times. I used slightly
diluted Formula 409 on the case and full strength on the removed knobs.
I don't spray it on, just moisten a soft cloth or Q-Tip.
My wife bought it for my birthday back in the 70's and it's in use every
day. Probably worth today what it cost back then. Heck of a radio.
