If the inside of thebabinet smells bad too put baking soda in an open
container or two and place inside the cabinet. This will eventually remove the
smell on the inside.

Cleaning the cabinet with mechanic's waterless hand cleaner (without pumice)
ught to do the trick. It removes grease and oil and old wax, taking the
tink of tobacco with it.

ubject: [Phono-L] smoke smell cleaner
I am sure that we all have bought some old phonographs that came from heavy
mokers. I recently purchased a nice oak Herzog cabinet like the one on the
ront of the Gadgets and Gizzmos book with the paper mache horn inside. It
s in excellent condition with the exception that it has a strong odor of
moke. Has anyone had any luck getting the smell out from an old phonograph
r cabinet? This cabinet came from the original owners grand-daughter who
s in her late 70s. Both her and her husband are heavy smokers. Also, does
nyone have any sales literature on these cabinets? I would like to try to
et any information on them. I am also currently using this one for a
attern to make the paper mache horn for my other two cabinets like this one
hat are missing the horn. So far the project is working out pretty good.
Thanks in advance,
Ken Brekke
