Default Re: Damp Bakelite surface damage. Methods to restore finish

Good morning,
Many thanks for your replies,
The sets have been put in the conservatory now as it is quite warm in there and should dry any remaining moisture out quite quickly. I think that the chassis is ok as the wet clothes were dumped on top of the cabinets so the chassis should be dry.

I shall have a go at repolishing the cabinets in a few days time once they have recovered from their ordeal!!

P.s my works clothes give off a rather strong Bakelite smell !!
