Toothpick dipped in lacquer thinner to remove paint from grooves. Doesn't appear to be the most perfect job either.  Mike, W6MAB

  Yes!  I got the impression that the whole front panel as well as the dial had been hit with a can of aluminum spray paint.  Mike, W6MAB

    More likely a Johnny Novice with a can of spray paint in 1967 trying to make his radio look cool...
