The interior came pretty darn clean but the top was so badly stained and the isinglass badly scratched I resigned myself to replace the top.Well as time has gone by I have removed all the scratches in the isinglass by carefully polishing. I thought I'd give cleaning one more try with a soap bar from the 1893…See More
