Hi
I’m restoring a radio and the back has the usual dropper damage. I’d like to retain the back so thought this option may stabilise the back and cover the large hole.

It’s a Teflon mat made for BBQs and only £1.78 for two 40cm x 30cm sheets so I thought it was worth ago.

Just wondering what others think, a suitable repair or have I missed some obvious reason why this is not a good idea?

Thanks for reading.

John
