Re: GEC Junior Fineline project.
4 diodes successfully installed in bridge formation and all is well again.
Now I have a picture and sound that I am happy with, I turn my attention to the case. During my investigations it had got to the stage where the only thing still secured in place was the tube, so this has now been removed so I can deal with an empty case. It has gone a sort of yellowy-brown colour over time. At first I thought it was nicotine stained, but I think it has been had by the sun as there is a loop of white where the cable would have been around the two hooks on the back. No amount of cleaning is bringing it back to its whiteness so I am thinking along the lines of a spray job now.
If anybody has any advise for restoring these plastic cases, I would be pleased to hear it. I did do a small abrasion test on an unseen area of the case and the yellowing is quite deep into the plastic.
