Here we have a completely restored console done in parchment and is a show quaility piece! It has been stripped down to the fiber glass. It has a new ash tray bezel and ash tray. The trim ring was near mint condition. Here are some pictures of it some with a flash and some without a flash. If you need more picture I can provide some more. $450 shipped

Laquer Thinner and a mild scotchbrite work well.

I use a bead blast cabinet, using glass and it removes the paint without affecting the grain. If you use other medias you might what to lower air pressure and test, hope this helps!

**70shortfleet** · 04-10-2012, 07:38 PM
