EDISON RESTORATION
Edison Cylinder Player Bedplate Restoration and CleaningUpon inspection of many Edison Cylinder players, we have come to recommend that the bedplate be cleaned and restored. The bedplate is cast-iron with black enamel paint. Over the years, oil has been added repeatedly to the gears in topworks and dripped down onto the bedplate’s finish. The oil, then attracts dirt and dust that hardens to the bedplate and on top of the original black paint. Over time the paint has a tendency to chip and/or rust. We can help in restoring these problems as well.
We have also seen many Edison bedplates with faded, worn or missing decals. We have a few restoration options for these types of problems. We can touch up the decals using a special decal pen or we can completely re-decal the bedplate for you.
Bedplate restoration is separate from topworks cleaning. The topworks cleaning estimated to you would only include the gears, and moving parts of your topworks and a light cleaning of your bedplate. The actual bedplate restoration would include re-painting (if needed) and/or re-decaling of the bedplate. The bedplate restoration would go a very long way towards enhancing the value and overall appearance of your machine.

The cost of our bedplate restoration is determined on a case by case basis depending on the amount of work required. For example, a bedplate that requires a complete overall (painting, decaling) will cost more than a bedplate that only needs a cleaning and a few decals touched up.
