POLISHING THE CABINET

| When the cabinet or console becomes dull or scratched, the original finish is best restored by the use of polishing wax commonly used for polishing automobile boc’es. Furniture polish generally has little body and soon evaporates, leaving the cabinet in the same or worse condition than before. The polishing wax lasts indefinitely, and protects the varnish agaiust further scratches. Bakelite panels and dials can also be brought to a high polish bv the wax, so that an old dull pane] will appear brighter than new. Only a very little wax should be used on the bakelite, as an excess gives a smeary appearance that is difficult to remove by any amount of rubbing.
