I got these old Star Wars figures off eBay and they are beaters. I'm going to fix them up and make them look new again. If you have any questions or something else to add please tell me in the comment section down below. Thank You for Watching!

Great job RO. I use those miracle sponges too. I use them on my midsoles when they get marked. They're fantastic.

Very nice! They look great now. Did you know that C-3PO’s leg was silver in the movies? Good information about getting off the writing. Use magic eraser. I got some writing on some games I need to get off. I was told you could use goo gone to get stickers off of games but I couldn’t find any at the store. Great restoration video!

Silver leg? No way! That's interesting. I'm going to look for that next time. It was so much fun fixing these things up! The miracle pad makes life easier. I'm using a generic version but it works just as good. It was only $1.27. Thanks!👍👍

To all of you out there, please do not you a “miracle pad” (or magic eraser) unless you need to sand something because it is very abrasive.

Would the chrome marker repair a C-3PO if the whole body was dull? Or how about the silver on a Death Star Droid?
@RETROOBLIVION
@RETROOBLIVION Жыл бұрын
Yes! These markers are pretty high quality and they can be used on plastics of all sorts of toys. My only concern would be having enough marker to do the job but I think one marker would be enough for an entire dull C-3PO. Luckily for me I only had to do touch ups and the marker blends in perfectly. Thanks For Watching!👍👍
