In this video, I talk about my experience with retrobrighting my Amiga approximately one year ago and show you how much it has yellowed again. I also take a close look at one of the new Kickstarter cases and put my Amiga 1200 in it.
Check out the new A1200 cases here: A1200.net (they are sold out again at most places it seems...)

Davide Bucci did an interesting writeup on his experience with retrobriting (and restoring) his VIC-20 a while ago. There's a lot of additional information in there stating that the widespread theory about bromide causing the yellowing might actually be wrong: davbucci.chez-a...
There's some additional info in the comments section about re-yellowing and de-yellowing.
The music during timelapses is "8-bit wannabe" by Focus 10/Øystein Hansen. Used with kind permission.

The music on the endscreen is a little loop I created myself.
The intro jingle is from the C64 version of the game "Flip and Flop". Recorded from a real (slightly broken) SID.
