Disgusting Commodore 64 Restoration. Will It Work? (Part 1)
About this video
Will a badly weathered Commodore 64 work again? Part 1 opens it up, inspects and washes it, then moves on to the keyboard, retrobright treatment, springs and chip testing.
Good to know: Strong hydrogen peroxide burns skin and eyes, and UV lamps harm eyes. First of a series.
Why watch it
By the maker's account the machine looks as if it sat out in the weather for years, and whether it works stays the open question, which part one may not settle.
