Cleaning up a ZX80.

Post by bobs »

Is there a safe & non-destructive way of cleaning the case of a ZX80, and restoring it from a faded yellow to a bright white again? I would so like to have it back to its pristine white.

Not tried it myself - but there is a retrobright formula - see http://retr0bright.wikispaces.com/

Look on the page "Making retrobright" for the ingredients - nothing you can't find easily.

Very interesting - I remember glancing over an article a while ago where it had been used on a C64, but couldn't recall the site. Now... any chance of sun in the next few days...? :D
