How did the laser work out for you? I bought replacement lasers before just to find it needed further calibration. Long shot you’d reply but thought I’d try anyways.
Reris beloved 🤨It's not like this That becomes clear Plastic you amateur Plastic you amateur,And just make a shield with Aluminum paper And add bicarbonate and vinegar , and put LED lights To lighten.
So I was planning on buying a ps1 slim... But they all got bought out at my local store.... It's not possible to make a ps1 into a ps1 slim, I wonder ×_×
You have used 6% hydrogen peroxide.. can you use 40% hydrogen peroxide with the same developer you have used and achieve the same result? Also how long did you submerge for? Thanks
You can use 40%. I used 6% because it is all that is available where I live. I believe that this PS1 was submerged for 2 to 3 days - if you're using a 40% solution you can probably get the same result in 6 to 8 hours.
That's awesome thanks and what ratios did you use, it looks like you add, peroxide, developer and water? What quantities of each should I use? I'll be using 40% peroxide as I got a whacking great 5 ltr bottle of the stuff lol
Turned out great but i would have used less bold symbols on the power on and open buttons. And I think original teal and powder blue colors for them would have looked stylish w the white console. Or maybe use no symbols at all. I just think the boldness of them makes them look out of place amongst the other graphical work. Great restoration otherwise though. 👍
Excellent video. What solution do you use to remove the stickers that were stuck to the lid and what solution do you use to clean the console housing? Are you using a normal toothbrush to clean? For the metal part, which solution should I use? To clean the circuit board, did you use a cotton swab dipped in isopropyl alcohol? For painting, any paint in particular? Was it necessary to apply primer first?
Então Julio, eu usei WD40 para tirar os adesivos. Para limpar os partes plásticos usei detergente de lavar-louça de marca Fairy, com cheiro de eucalipto e água morna. Para limpar o PCB usei álcool isoproílico 99% com um cotonete, e tbm usei uma escova náilon antiestático, para os lugares mais dificeis (a mesma escova que se vê aos 16:54). Para limpar o metal, primeiro vinagre de limpeza, e depois usei WD40 com papel de lixar. Enquanto a pintura, tem que lixar primeiro, pintar com o primer, lixar levamente denovo e limpar, passar tinta, lixar denovo levamente e limpar com alcoól , e depois passar tinta pela segunda vez. Deu um trabalho, mas vale a pena.
One tip for people planning their own vintage console restorations or reinserting screws into plastic pieces: turn the screw counter-clockwise until you hear/feel a click. That means the threads have returned to their original position and now you can screw it in properly without damaging the threads in the case. It's plastic, so you can cut new threads through the old ones if you don't do this, leading to the screws eventually not having a tight fit. Just a little something I picked up.
Eventually, just like any paint. But it should last many years, unless you attack it with a pickaxe or something. The surface is sanded, then a layer of primer is applied, it's sanded again, then followed by three layers of paint, with a light sanding and cleaning between each one.
Właśnie obejrzałem twoj film ponieważ kupiłem 2 godziny wcześniej PS2 twój film posłuży mi jako instruktaż do renowacji wielkie dzięki na pewno skorzystam zapewne obejrze go jeszcze kilka razy . Pozdrawiam i dobra robota
I was 17 years old when I got my Play Station 1 back then. I was happy like never before. I'm 45 now and still cringe when I hear the welcome screen. I wish I could go back to 1996 to experience that feeling again. Back then, there was a huge generational leap in graphics compared to the arcades we played until then, as if you could now get a console with 8640p resolution for 500 euros It was an experience 4 times better graphically than anything we had seen up to that point at least for me.
