Got today this nice PHILIPS powerplay machine on flea.
So far , so good.
But it must have been in a kitchen for long time...
Full with dirt from cooking. :'-(



How to get off this glueing dirt? :hmmm:
I don´t want to harm the printings on it, so no agressive substance.

I´m afraid i must part the box to get all dirt off.
But what best for a first clean up?
Soap water alone will not work... :-/

Ramon is correct. The best thing that I have found to clean grease off a boombox is Orange Glo. I am not sure if Vienna has anything like it though.

They have an Orange Glo cleaner for kitchen and bath, but I have never used that one. I would imagine it has some sort of micro abrasive in it.

The one you want is for wood floors. Oh, and use sparingly. ;-)

Did a careful try with a dustcleaner in our company.
Works! :thumbsup:
But anyway i will part the box for a good clean and the belts also need a change.
And i want to respray the speaker grills. :-)

lets know how it fairs out roman :yes: :yes:
Simply ****! :'-(
Good luck i checked it inside, before i spent all my time on cleaning it.
Radio works, but:
Tapedrive is broken, it must have been dropped bad....
Too much damage inside, not worth to fix that all. :sad:

So stopped restauration, story follows.

But i will store it away, maybe any custom job on it... :blush:
