The Restoration Process
Dial
– The dial has been fully disassembled, cleaned, lubed and timed to ensure years of trouble free service. The number plate has been cleaned and hand polished. A brand fingerwheel and die cut dial card have been added as well
Cords
– The phone has been outfitted with brand new cords.
Wall Connection
- The phone features a modular wall plate the connects directly to your existing wall jack. If you require a traditional line cord, please let me know in the comments
Shell
– The shell was slightly discolored due to age, so we put it through our multi-step restoration process which includes sanding with 400, 800, 1000, 2000 grit. This ensures that there are no scratches, dents or dings. The shell is them carefully buffed on our two step buffing wheels. This takes out the fine abrasions left by sanding and leaves the plastic with a smooth factory fresh finish. Finally we apply a three step plastic restoration compound. This leaves the plastic with a beautiful high gloss finish.
Handset
– Handset has been sanded with the same process as the shell and buffed back to its beautiful original shine.
Handset Cradle
- We have had this professionally chrome plated, the mirror finish is unsurpassed in both appearance and durability.
The phone goes through extensive testing before to ensure it is in perfect working condition prior to shipping.
Do you currently have any rotary phones? If the answer is no, it is always a good idea to call your local phone company and check if they still support “pulse” dialing. If they do, you are all set to go. If they do not, your phone will not be able to place calls without a converter. We have internal converters for this type of setup available for .95 (installed during assembly) or an external solution for 44.95.
