<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=312293819-30012011><FONT face=Verdana>I am in the process of
restoring my Collins 75A-2 and after cleaning the knobs they have come out
matted. I remember the knobs as being shiny. My R-388 has very shiny knobs
and I'm wondering how to get them back to that state. The finish on the
R-388 is not polish, they look like they have shiny varnish on them. I
don't really remember what the 75A-2 looked like but I only washed them with
dishwashing liquid. They were dirty so and dusty when I cleaned
them. Do I need to repaint them with a light coat of varnish. The
75A-2 was built in 1950 time frame and the R-388 was built in 1962. Is it
possible they are made of different material. Thanks Ben
