In this video, I'm finishing the restoration of the C128 I repaired in the previous videos. This includes a thorough cleaning, experimenting with thermal solutions and retrobrighting the slightly yellowed plastic parts.

I used a 12% cream peroxide and a 11.9% liquid peroxide solution for the retrobrighting process. The pink light is a full spectrum light (normally used for growing plants).

The little musical loop was made by myself, the other tunes used are the theme from the C64 version of Ghostbusters (Composed by Ray Parker Jr., SID-Version by Russel Lieblich, Activision 1984) and the title "theme" is from the game Flip and Flop.
