[Boatanchors] CLEANING OLD RADIOS

[David Hollander]

I have had success using "simple green" to get rid of nicotine. When I 
used it on the Heathkit SB series, they looked new after this treatment.

I would not use acetone for any cleaning.

Be careful with windex. My friend destroyed a Johnson Ranger II finish 
by using it to clean the front panel.

The dryer bounce sheet also works great for getting rid of the cigarette 
smell. I just stick a sheet or two inside the radio.

Good luck,

Dave N7RK
