Possibly the ugliest A500 ever

[amiman99]

RetroBrite to the rescue. Well, it would make a good ad if it could restore something that badly yellowed.

I don't know if Retro-bright will help, this is a major discoloration.

Cream Proxide 12%, wrap the A500 in glad wrap (cling film / plastic film for those state side) and 3 hours and some sun light later and you will have an amazing looking Amiga :-)

I need to try the film, I always have problem with peroxide drying too fast in the sun.
I will try it on the keyboard I'm restoring right now which is very yellow. I got it from someone and it is filthy, see the picture -before and almost after.

Nice, looking good. Would like to see the end product :-)

Here is the final result, looks like new
I let it sit about 4-5hrs in the sun, wrapped in plastic film with 30% peroxide cream from beauty shop.

As for keys, I noticed that the alcohol does more damage to the letters then soap and water during clean-up, looks like the peroxide does not affect other color surfaces, like letters and logos.
