Default Re: Refurbishing a veneered radio case

If Astonish wheel cleaner is largely sodium hydroxide why not buy a 1kg bag of soda crystals for £1? Makes gallons of solution. Has been used for many generations as a degreasing and cleaning agent. I've been using it for years on alloy wheels to say nothing of drains, greasy pans, hobs, car parts etc. Not kind to hands or pure aluminium as has been said.

Craig's 'solution' sounds like the Rolls Royce of furniture restoration fluids and should be ideal for wood veneered radio cabinets.
