Title: Retr0Bright: un-yellowing your old consoles/computers
Post by: idolminds on Saturday, March 07, 2009, 05:20:32 PM

Pretty cool. (http://retr0bright.wikispaces.com/)

The plastics used in old consoles and computers have yellowed with age. These guys have figured out a concoction that will reverse/remove the yellowing using some easy to acquire ingredients. I've got an old SNES thats yellowed a bit. I should give this a try.

That's pretty awesome.  The only old console I have at this point is my SNES, which is hiding in a garage somewhere, and I haven't looked at it in ages.  I bet the remaining C64 hobbyists are happy as clams about now.
