Thomas Day replied to David Melin's discussion New guy. Recently obtained an Allwave 23 in a Tasman cabinet! (photos)"I used KIWI neutral shoe polish on the Waverly cabinet of my Allwave 23. This was recommended by a friend who deals in antique furniture. It removes the dirt and leaves a nice shine. "
David C. Poland replied to David Melin's discussion New guy. Recently obtained an Allwave 23 in a Tasman cabinet! (photos)"And vacuum the cabinet and chassis first. The clear plastic dial strip can be cleaned with a mild detergent on a damp cloth. My experience is the numbering is water fast.

The ebay going rate for…"
