Antique Radio Restoration Vols 3 & 4; Buy-1-Get-1 FREE!

Get the confidence to restore the radios you have always wanted but were not sure how with Bret's Old Radios video seriesAntique Radio Restoration Vol. 3 and Vol. 4! Host Bret Menassa shows you how to repair dozens of the most challenging wood and plastic cabinet problems. In Volume 3, you'll learn great ways to clean and polish all kinds of plastic radios: from Bakelite and Catalin to Plaskon, Beetle, and even modern plastics. Learn to restore a new luster to even badly worn and damaged cabinets. Flawlessly repair cracks and broken sets, and even apply a fabulous, authentic-looking painted finish. Finally, you'll learn to mold and cast your own faux-Bakelite radio parts, perfect for replicating missing louvers, grill bars, or other cabinet details, or even filling cabinet holes.

In Volume 4, you'll be able to refinish only the damaged areas of the radio, blending your repairs with the original finish. Make cabinet repairs and replicate cabinet parts using simple, inexpensive tools. Repair chipped and missing veneer. Remove and reuse vintage veneers from other radio cabinets, and even re-veneer an entire radio. Learn different grain-filling and lacquer-toning techniques, and how to achieve that elusive "piano-finish." Finally, pick up dozens of restoration tricks using blush erasers, sandable lacquer sealers, and different shades of lacquer pigments to get fabulous results in all your wood cabinet radios. Bret's videos are hands-on, geared for either the beginning or experienced hobbyist, and are delivered in his fun, conversational style. You won’t find videos like these ANYWHERE else!
