Hi, that'll be a fun radio to fix up. There were a lot of radios at Kutztown that called out to me, but I have too big a pile already waiting.

After you wash the pushbuttons with a toothbrush, you can paint some artist's acrylic paints over the grooves. Just paint across; no need to try to keep it in the groove. Let it dry a minute and then with a slightly damp cloth or paper towel, wipe across. Let dry more and polish off with a soft cloth to make the lines sharp.

At a crafts store you'll find various shades of white and ivory in small bottles, in case you think that bright white might be too...bright.
