[Drake] Proper cleaner for Drake 1A dial and front panel

[John King]

Hello Drake folks. I have a BEAUTIFUL Drake 1A that I have managed to get working great. Now I want to clean the circular plastic dial and the white panel behind the dial. They look good for 52 years of service, but there is some slight "dulling of the white" that I believe is some slight dirt and maybe a slight amount of air borne contaminants over half a century.

I don't want to risk damage to the plastic dial or its' lettering or the paint on the metal panel behind the dial because of the rareness of this model receiver and the specially good cosmetic condition of it.

Don't want to take chances so advice based on your ACTUAL EXPERIENCE would be greatly appreciated. I have used various cleaners on the 2A, 2B, R4,R4C. T4X, T4C, TR3, and TR4 in my accumulation with good results. Those pieces are more common than the Drake 1A and I don't want to risk damage to the semi rare one.

Thanks for your input. 73, John, K5PGW
