I am restoring an old Kris 23+ tube-type CB radio.
As with most Japanese-made CB gear from that era,
the coil slugs are held in place with some sort of
glossy white paint-like sealer. How do I dissolve
that sealer without damaging the coil forms? I'm
unable to budge the slugs with a diddle stick, and
I don't want to risk fracturing a slug by trying
to force them.

I've always had good luck by heating the slug with a soldering iron tip,
set on low heat. The "gliptall" will usually melt before the coil form
does, but be careful just the same.
