Using GoJo to clean up an old Victor Victrola VV-400 Cabinet 

Looks great!

I wish I knew this before I bought a vintage Gibson SG many years back that was covered in years of cigarette smoke grease. I cleaned it with alcohol and it melted the surface of the nitro cellulose, though I was able to polish a shine back with the alcohol damp cloth. After a while it developed crazing of the finish as it dried out, although this is often considered desirable in old guitars, it could have been prevented if I'd used Gojo. Now whenever I acquire any antique that needs cleaning, I go for the Gojo, it is the gentlest most effective cleaner you can use on ANY surface and leaves a lustrous shine so no need for a wax polish. I wonder if they even use it to restore old master oil paintings?

Very good. This is something I intend to try too. I can't get Gojo but have some similar hand cleaner. Thanks 😀 👍

Can't wait to try it. Thank you.

Thanks for sharing! Just bought a Victrola X in oak and it was covered I soot. Got as much as I could with ammonia but think I’ll go over it with gojo

Great job it looks like new !!

Then apply a mixture of 1/4 white vinegar and 3/4 canola oil. Apply liberally and let it set for 24 hours. wipe off the excess oil mixture after 24 hours.

Use cotton cloth

NOW i know why my victrola is extremely dark to the point you cant even see the wood grain 😮

Much of that is cigarette smoke.
