My first roundie, ctc 16

The stereo works well and sounds great except for dirty pots. The tv is going to need help.
The crt was so weak there was only a very dim picture, I tried the bake with little improvement so I hit it with the light rejuve and got it back alive. Looks like every tube has been replaced including the crt with a dumont. This set needs a full setup, the purity and convergence are so far off. Also the color doesnt appear to work maybe the crystal is dead, the usual electrolytic caps as it has the hum bar and a slight hum in the sound. Also the cataract is real bad, im thinking about a Hawkeye rebuild. Are dumont crts junk? Any other recommendations?
