normally I don't worry about making it look completely original, I do cut off the cans and mount the alum tape back on , but that is for the sake of keeping lead dress the same. I never use term strips, just cut drill insert and solder. Sometimes I do not even bother with putting the cans back over the caps. Its just a TV and my only goal is to get it functional.
IF I had a CT-100 (which I prob would avoid since I would constantly worry about the CRT) I am sure I would go the extra mile to restuff by uncrimping and would also prob restuff the wax caps as well. It goes against my nature but due to the historical value of the set I think it deserves it. I think for me I would just look at it like this, its a one time deal, so take what ever amount of time is needed to do it right. Once its done its unlikely that that I would ever do again.
