Hi, new grill cloth can be had from parts express, or antique electronics. For the covering you will have to go to a furniture recovering shop, the only problem will be that the new covering has a courser texture to it than the original stuff. mabe you might get lucky and the shop you work with can find new old stock like the original.
Hello. Awesome setup! Is the naugahyde torn up or just really dirty? If there are just a few small tears, you use clear silicone to seal them, and car interior cleaner like Armorall would get it nice and shiny. If it's pretty much shredded, you'll want to be careful and patient recovering it since there are literally hundereds of staples holding the stuff on. Also, saving the old foam and cloth underneath will make life easier. Search through the forum and you'll stumble on a few posts that give detailed directions from years past. Good luck!
I replaced the grille cloth, and it match perfectly.I'm bringing the cabinet to a upholstery shop,to see If he can do the job.I will update latter Thanks.
