Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone had experiences using retr0brite on any cases
here, I want to clean up my IIgs, IIci, an SE, and various mice and kb's
but I don't want to kill the cases in the process. Just wondering if
anyone has tried and what their experiences were.

well, it was more of a watch it, keep applying process, but much simpler imho.

Understand there's yellowing, then there's browning. Fantastic removes browning
very well. Did on my Lisa. In fact if you scrub long enough the yellowing will
come off (with a rough shop cloth say). A lot of it anyway. Doesn't hurt to
try.

So what is your approximate materials cost for doing two machines like that?
The normal price on a gallon of developer is around $14 but it always seems
to be on sale for under $10. Dollar stores usually have cans of Oxy powder.

Has anyone tried putting something in the container to fill the cavity with
dummy material to save space? It is good to know a gallon of developer can
be diluted that much though.

The dunk method is what I'd recommend if you have a LOT of stuff to cover.
You can also get UV lamps and toss the whole shebang in your garage
overnight.
Here's an even easier method:
1.) Get a spray bottle, 1L size.
2.) Get some Oxy-product. I went to a laundromat and paid 75c for a small

I did a SE/30 back, faceplate, M1106 keyboard and mouse with this
method and it came out great.
How much time were you sitting there spraying your objects under those
conditions?

What about just carefully draping the item with old cloth and soaking that.
Resoak as needed?

I've heard that spray bottles and soaked cloths can both be tough to get
even coatings on the unit. Also, it's easy to miss corners and parts of
bezels. Best results I've heard of are nearly always related to dunking
methods, even if only 1 surface at a time is dunked and allowed to cure.
Time
About two hours per side. It really was quite easy. Bring sun glasses --
you'll need them. Now that I think about it, that pressurized pesticide
idea is the way I'd do it next.
