The Mac Observer
Removing the Yellow from a Vintage Mac Computer Case
Check out this video Adam Christianson at MacCast found for us. It shows how to
remove the yellowing that occurs on vintage computer cases (like a Mac Plus
from 1989). If you have a vintage Mac, you know that yellow. The cases turn a
specific shade of yellow-brown, and after a while you forget it was gray, or
even platinum, when it shipped. YouTube user 65scribe restores them using a
solution of peroxide, xanthan gun, glycerine, an oxygen-based stain remover,
and the power of sunlight. I'm not sure all those chemicals are easily
available in the States (there's some discussion about that in the comments of
this three year old video), but you'll be amazed at the results.
