Restoration of Extremely Yellow Broken Sega Saturn
About this video
A yellowed Sega Saturn that no longer reads discs is restored and repaired, with a link to the maker's own retrobriting tutorial for the plastic.
Good to know: Mains voltage inside the power supply. Never look into a powered laser. Retrobriting peroxide burns skin and eyes, and UV lamps harm eyes.
Why watch it
Disc read failure is described as common on these consoles for several reasons, so the cause here may differ from a reader's own. A separate retrobriting tutorial is linked for the yellowing.
