Beautiful restoration. I’ve had disappointing results with metallic paints restoring plated parts. The only paint I’ve used with a good outcome is a Krylon stainless steel paint that actually has steel powder in it. I’ve used it on chassis parts and it works well. I’m seriously thinking of putting together a plating apparatus. You can do it on the cheap by getting a secondhand power supply and some thick wire stock. I’d love to nickel and brass plate some of the trim parts on my radios and TVs. Should give a better outcome than paint. There are some amazing powder coating paint colors for a metallic finish but I’ll try the more economical process first. Your tv is simply beautiful.
