Funnily enough, when I went Into a sally beauty, asked em for that stuff, they asked me if i was using it for bleaching...bones? Apparently they’ve got someone who does that with the stuff, said they’re used to folks coming in for it for odd uses like that, and that for mine being used to restore old plastics was the least weird one they’ve seen.

@17Codiferus
@17Codiferus 5 жыл бұрын
But....that's just common sense. Of COURSE it's not permanent, NOTHING is. Eventually the plastics will yellow again, how long that takes depends entirely on how it's stored/used post treatment. Assuming it took around 30 years to get that bad to begin with, it's not unreasonable to expect a decade or more out of a well-cared-for restored piece.

When I retrobrighted my vintage Macs, I sprayed on 303 plastic protector which blocks UV rays. Years later, they are still flawless in their glorious platinum beige. Highly recommend getting a bottle of this, it works really well to prevent re-yellowing.

As an upholstery/car guy who loves your videos, I have a tip. Buy a good steamer like a mcculloch 1370 and some plastic trim tools. The steamer would remove any grime or dirt without chemicals, and the plastic trim tools will give you an opportunity to scrape or pry without worrying about damaging any plastic. The steamer would be handy for a lot of other tasks as I've noticed you're a neat freak like me, haha. You'd be amazed at what you can clean with just steam. Anyways, I'm just throwing it out there. Love the content new and old😎🤙

When I was 10 (in 2006) I remember that the LCII we had (we almost never used it anymore as we had a bought a PC a few years back) was making these noises (2:37) and sadly it ended up in a recycling center few years later. I have so much memories with that computer playing games in black & white !

Good to see you discharged it to the correct place, the braid across the back of the CRT which in your case it was connected to the rim band lug. The reason most modern units do not arc is that the FBT has a built in bleed resistor (which is usually part of the Focus/G2 chain and very often the HV sense point) not the CRT.

Could also be a filter cap related to the cpu fan. I have seen a similar issue inside an old vcr with a built in amplifier. Every time the motor for the cassette playback moved, popping and clicking could be heard through some connected speakers. Replacing a single capacitor on the motor got rid of the noise.

I was repairing LC models for the past 6 years. Repaired about a 200 of them. The squealing is coming from the audio IC because of the bad caps. Had about 40 that did the same :) Just my 2 cents. Recap and wash the board throughly.

My Dad had that exact same type of Mac computer growing up. I remember it was the first computer experience I ever had, learning to type on there with Mario Teaches Typing, then playing a shareware version of Wolfenstein 3D (that barely ran on it) right afterwards, lol. Plus of course many hours spent in King's Quest V, which got me into point-and-clicks back in the day. And of course he had the matching monitor, keyboard and mouse with it at the time, though I think he's thrown away the system since then, sadly. Still gives me nostalgic memories though seeing that distinctive LC II box ;)

I remember in the computer lab of my elementary school in the early 1990s they had a couple of color Macintosh computers with a whole bunch of black and white Macintosh computers. Everyone would rush to try to get to the color computers. Can you show the recapping of the LC once you have the capacitors?
