If the dark brown is due to UV exposure, there is no way to restore it since it is throughout the plastic. If it is smoker's grunge, then a variety of cleaners can be used BUT make sure they are NON-abrasive and don't due other damage. I use some cleaner for delicate plastic, electronic equipment, etc. that is made by GC. As with any cleaner, proceed with caution and test a hidden area to see if the cleaner is compatible with the plastic.
Might have some added tips in the WB4HFN Drake website or Electric Radio magazine. 73, Evan, K9SQG -----Original Message----- From: Allen Bush <adb66...@yahoo.com> To: drakelist <drakelist@zerobeat.net> Sent: Mon, Jan 16, 2012 7:14 am Subject: [Drakelist] Question about dial darkening I see there may be someone that has removed the dark brown discoloration from a Drake dial. (I have about 3 Drakes with this problem.) Can anyone lend specific light on how to accomplish this without destroying the dial? THANKS!
