I'm new here. Hope I'm in the right thread.

I acquired my first late 60's black K100C-8 4 speaker amp. Tuck n roll is in good condition but is flat looking as it has been stored 40 years. What should I use to make it shine? Does the naugahyde need any chemical to put moisture or oils in it to sustain it 's life and soften it up? By Googling I find sites saying soap & water to clean and spray furniture polish to shine it up. I'd be concerned using furniture polish and the naugahyde hardening & cracking. What about Armorall?... Where can I find the year of manufacture using it's serial #? I haven 't been able to find the info here using the search box. Thanks.
