Retr0Bright a PCEngine - See the results

[SignOfZeta]

I got it from Sally's Beauty Supplies.

Yeah, instead of ordering some bizzare shit from in the internet just buy some from a place like Sally's or wherever. Unless you live in a town that is so f*cking remote that there are NO places to get your hair styled then I'm going to assume there is someplace where you can get the stuff locally.

Sweet, do you got the item # by chance?

Or is this it:

EDIT:

Just picked up some Volume 40 at Sally's, 32 Oz. for $5.  They had volume 50 but was only as a creme.  I'll see how this goes tomorrow.  Thanks.

Sally carries 40.  They also carry 50, but you need a beautician license to purchase it because it's powerful enough to kill a bitch.

The Food Grade peroxide is probably fine.   Peroxide is edible, AFAIK, in small doses, lol.  It's in teeth whitening toothpaste and shit,so it can at least go in your mouth for a little. 

I don't recommend trying it though.

the 20 vol. is weaksauce.  You may have to leave it out longer.   If you're leaving it out in the sunlight, a few hours should do it.

You aren't allowed to buy 50 volume so don't even bother.

Unless you are a licensed beautician.

Here are my results using 20 volume clear peroxide develop for about three hours setting outside in the sun, one session.

I'm quite impress with the results. Thanks Arkhan:)

[roflmao]

Looks great!

[fraggore]

man that a wicked result the joypads they look new.

[turbokon]

I know right:) Surprising how simple it was. No mixing or measuring involved. One of the best kept secret on the Internet:)

Damn that looks great!  Where did you get the 20 volume clear at?  I may actually look into this for future use.

Did you only leave it in developer or did you make retr0brite with the Xanthan gum, oxyclean and glycerin?

[turbokon]

Just did the cd-rom2 too.

Bernie, I got a gallon of it from Sally's for $5.

Dragonmaster, all I did was let it soaked in the clear peroxide developer, rinse it with soap and water, let it dry and wiped with armorall protectant wipes. Easy right:)

[Arkhan]

All I can say is

"I told you so"

=3

I'm surprised the 20 volume worked so good.  It didn't do much of anything on my piss-yellow Commodore plastics until I kicked it up to at least 30.  40 has been the best.

It all costs the same!

Ya thanks for the advice guys, just did my NES dog bone controllers which only had some slight discoloration and volume 40 worked great!  They look brand new now.  I didn't bother with before and afters because it wasn't extremely discolored.

I am going to give this a try once I get home.

[Arkhan]

I used to just pull the shit out, hose it off, and bring it in the house and put it back together, lol.


Now see, if you'd done retrobrite, you'd be sitting screwing around with goop and pastes and painting it on and wasting time and effort.
