Here is the link which includes a demonstration on how it works. The Cabinet’s Finish, Restoration Process and Repairs. Our Radio cabinets undergo a vigorous restoration process. Our goal is to maintain the natural beauty of the wood and grain, while providing a deep luster and shine. We achieve this by removing all the old and worn lacquers and stains. We then sand the cabinet with fine grit pads down to the original bare wood. Nicks, chips, and blemishes are filled and/or blended. Any loose veneer is re-secured. We make sure any filler applied, or repairs made are blended nicely and do not detract from the beauty of the set unless otherwise noted. New stains and sealers are applied by hand. We continue by using many coats of Mohawk brand lacquers and toners applied in the same manner as when the radio was originally finished in the factory. We use nitrocellulose piano lacquer which is applied through a professional HVLP turbine spray system in a climate-controlled room. Nitrocellulose lacquer is very thin. We also apply very thin coats. This allows the lacquer to seep into the grain and not cover it up. Many hours of work are put into the radios, but as you can see, the outcome is a beautiful, natural-looking cabinet with gorgeous luster & shine. Our radios are a great piece of history that comes to you ready to proudly display, as well as listen to, in any room of the home or office. 14 1/2″W x 17″H x 9D. Antique tube radio reception can differ greatly depending on location, length of antenna, time of day and amount of interference in different areas. Many modern-day appliances can also interfere with reception and cause static, distortion or buzzing. Its reception, sound and performance should not be expected to compare to a modern radio with today’s technology. Playing capability is accurately described based on my location, surroundings and hooked up to a loop or 12′ copper line antenna. The antenna will be included in the sale, but I cannot guarantee reception quality in your area. Antique Radio Electronics, whether restored or un-restored, are by nature hazardous due to their voltage, design, age and should not be operated unattended or for great lengths at a time. Any operation, repairs or other adjustments are done at your own risk.
