To Retrobright or not to..
« on: November 10, 2014, 11:08:34 AM »
Not sure where to put this post but as I'm considering selling the item, I'm going to place it here in the Amiga Marketplace.

I have an Amiga 4000/040 lying around and it's quite yellow. I was wondering if I should use the retrobright method to make it white again. Would it increase it's value?

Thanks. Yeah, I read somewhere to put some sort of clear lacquer on the machine. After applying the retrobright.

So I decided to retrobright the A4000 I have. I was wondering if I need to protect the Commodore logo. Anyone?

I decided NOT to retrobright the A4000 and leave that decision to the potential buyer. I'm going to put my A4000/040 - 16MB up for sale this week. Not sure if I will put it on e-bay or just place a message here and see what happens.
