Thanks for all of the replies. I had some denatured alcohol on hand and decide to try it. It has worked rather well. It takes a little "elbow grease" but it cuts right through the grime. The cabinet top isn't in great shape so I decided to try the alcohol.I need to buy some more and give it a few more applications.-Bob

By the way those slide locks on the doors have got to go! Make up some new brass or bronze knobs....Dave
Cabinet Scrapers: You sharpen them with a file and burnish them to create a cutting edge. It's easier than it sounds. What they used before sandpaper. It will create a smooth flat surface and only lightly clean yours. May or may not be followed by sandpaper.See below for an example:http://www.grizzly.com/products/Square-Scraper-Set-3-pc-/T27042
Of course, I still think you should embrace the grime.
