Is this GE Model 62 Bakelite?
 

I have this exact clock radio and the case needs cleaning. Does anybody know if it's Bakelite or is it made of something else? Suggestions on how to clean would be appreciated...especially on what products or methods of cleaning not to use.

Managed to repair the clock today and so far it's keeping good time...that was a trip. Found this and a Heathkit IG-5237 at a local garage sale.

A little hard to tell. If it's brown inside and ivory outside, it is probably painted. If painted it will have a little chip somewhere unless you are superlucky! If painted there will be some overspray inside.

If it's solid ivory inside and out, it is either plaskon or styrene and the color goes straight through the plastic.

In any case, mild soap and water will clean it. For a styrene or plaskon case, you can take out the guts and just wash it with soapy water in the sink. If there's a sticker of course protect that.
