Jeff Great Great Great!

I have posted a response to you on the site, I met with the rep from Micro-surface supplier and I have been busy with this. I have been very busy testing this product along with other products and would to offer this as a service to restore, I made a video diary and need to get all that up to date. Been busy with Christmas and helping a chap to repair a BG 4002.

I will contact you asap to discuss.

Very interested

Kev

Hi Kev,

I have had good success with Micro-surface products. They have a terrific kit that does wonders, if requiring the patience of Job.

A very kind member of BeoWorld supplied me with a new dustcover for my Beogram 4000, which required a bit of work. (Along with a few other key components)

I used the Micro-surface kit and progressively wet-sanded the dustcover until I was reasonable certain that it was “perfect.”

Only after polishing with a very special random orbital (auto) polisher did I see that I had missed a few scratches, but overall the effect is absolutely stunning.

I have progressive photos if anyone is interested.

Hi Kevin:

I doubt much can be done with this particular one. Some uncaring owner dropped a cigarette on the cover.

Novus makes a good line of acrylic polishes that does wonders for acrylic lids. Hairline scatches can be removed with patience. I've used this on my beogram 8000 and CDX lids. It's a two part formulation.

For deeper sractches that you can feel you need buffing wheels.

Let us know what you find.

Hi:

I'm wondering if anyone has a spare 4002 dust cover? I picked up 4002 deck with cracked and cigarette burned lid which I'm hoping that I can restore.

I'm located in the United States.

Thanks,

Derek
