Subject: Beeb Cleaner?
I have read quite a few reviews, websites, where people have made Retr0bright,
to the specifications, and some have had mixed results, its the UV leaving
out in the sun, this time of year, do not think Im going to see the sun much!
some folks using on Atari ST cases have had disasters,where the plastic has
melted!
ill let the list know if my stocks of hydrogen peroxide at the correct strength
arrive!!!
A chemical/electronic supplier I use suggested they could make it up using
the ingredients, currently waiting on pricing...
