Wow! Sounds encouring! I will definitely try it...start with someting on the bootom of my favourite list. Thanks everyone.
Try contacting McIntosh and see if they offer a touch up paint. it may even be free they are great people. I blew a fuse and they sent me a couple at no charge. Never asked for model, serial numbers just the fuse size and type.
It was a special slow blow that I couldn't find even at RS
I have put together touch up paint in a bottle with brush that will touch up any size bad spot in the black area in one application and it looks absolute mint when dried. the foam strips if deteriorated can be removed and no matter how much damage is done to the black paint it can be repainted and new foam applied.

e-mail me for price
I bought a MR-78 FM Tuner.Believe me I paid enough for it but it LOOKS like it came out of the factory yesterday.Do yourself a favor and contact www.audioclassics.com.The people do restoration on Mcintosh gear.

For the record the problem was/is with the adhesive that was used on the foam liner and tape to install the glass. It actually seeps and delaminates the glass backing and causes the "bubbling" often seen on McIntosh gear. And yes, it has been corrected on newer gear.
