I stripped down the radio until I separated all the components from it's wooden housing. I ended up with the electronics, front cover + glass, a decorative plate and the knobs.

Electronics

All the electronics are stored in a metal compartment as you can find in the pictures above. In this step I didn't do anything with it, I will get into that in a later chapter.

Front cover and glass

I was surprised about the state of the glass and fabric. It was a bit dusty, but no big scratches or other kind of damage. I used water and soap to get it clean and store it for later assembly.

Decorative plate

As you can see in the pictures the color of the metal was not how it supposed to be. I cleaned it using scouring cream. After a while it came out pretty good so i did a last clean with soap and dried it.

Knobs

I noticed that 2 of the knobs miss their "gold" cover, but since the knobs are divided 2 by 2 on each side, I was ok with that. If you take a good look at the first picture showing the knob, you can see a lot of dirt on it.

I used my ultrasonic cleaner with a simple solution of water, vinegar and dish soap. A first run did clean a lot (compare picture), but I decided to put them in 2x 10min. The plastic residue on the last picture was removed later.
