Default Ultra Twin De-Luxe Model R906

I have just acquired this model radio one I have never had before checking it out all the main components all seem to test out ok. My reason for this post is the snake skin case I need advice on how to clean it of its nicotine staining and try to get it looking nice again it has no damage but looks very grubby ADVISE PLEASE ? Just a thought do other repair men when buying this type of radio like me factor in £10 for a 50+50or 32+32 350 volt new Electrolytic as they always need one TAB

Default Re: Ultra Twin De-Luxe Model R906

I have mentioned this product before, mostly for cleaning LP records. It also works superbly on vinyl or even leather finishes. Its called Liquinox. Its a professional non acidic non abrasive cleaning agent used for hard drive components and operating theatre "tools " for want of a better word. Instantly cleans just about anything. It costs about $15 Au for a US quart and is diluted 100:1 with distilled water. It lasts a VERY long time!!. Its also totally biodegradeable .
