    Removing scratches from dust cover.

    A few months ago I got this Technics SL-7 from an estate sale, ladies dad passed and she was clearing out his house and sold me it for 80 bucks.

    Hey all, so I have a dust cover here that I am looking for suggestions on how to clean up. Long story short it had a run in with some acetone. From what I can tell these markings are only on one side of the plastic and don't appear to be very deep. Anyone have any suggestions? Probably going...

    Technics SL-D2 Dust Cover Compatibility

    Can Dust Covers Darken Over Time?

    So I rescued a Philips GA-212 the other day and am quite taken with it. To be honest, the second I saw the green-lighted capacitive buttons, I knew I wanted to pick it up. It's a beat worse for the ware, and will take time to clean up, but it plays as it should and the only real problem is the...

    Thorens TD 160 dust cover hinge help needed

    I have a fairly beat up TD 160 that works well, but is cosmetically challenged. When I got it, the dust cover was cracked around the hinge. The hinges were screws with washers. Pretty lame. I finally got some of those metal pieces that fit over the original plastic to provide a more solid hinge...
