Repair & restoration of a scratched Apple keyboard - How to resurface Plastic
This video will show you how to make your yellowed keyboard look almost new again.
Coat the plastic in hydrogen peroxide to fix discoloration. Hydrogen peroxide works well on plastics that have turned entirely yellow instead of in just one spot. Fill a plastic bag with enough hydrogen peroxide to cover the plastic. Stick the plastic in the bag of hydrogen peroxide and lay it out in direct sunlight. Wait 3-4 hours before rinsing it off with clean water.
You can purchase hydrogen peroxide at a drugstore or big box store.
If you’re treating some sort of plastic mechanism, make sure you remove all the parts that aren’t plastic before putting them into the hydrogen peroxide.
You can also use an old toothbrush to scrub the hydrogen peroxide onto the plastic if desired
Retrobright is a hydrogen peroxide-based process for removing yellowing from ABS plastics

Melamine sponges are the work of HEAVEN! Seriously whoever invented those things needs to be given praise FOREVER! They are lifesaving!!!
I have this keyboard and one day I spilled soda on it. I thought it’s already ruined anyways so why not try putting it in the dishwasher. I did and it cleaned it like new. I plugged it into the computer. It was dead. BUT after a few days I tried again and it worked. So after that any time it got dirty I’d do the same thing. Dishwasher. Keep it facing down over the sink for a day or two so the water will drain out and then plug it back in. It’s never failed. I’m typing this comment on it now. I’ve done this at least 50 times
엄..... 배터리를 사용하는 키보드에는 적용하지 마세요.
Bro how often are you spilling things on your keyboard?! 50 times?? Surely that’s a joke?
@@EPICLULZ123 no I don’t spill stuff on it that often. I put my keyboard in there every few weeks to keep it clean and fresh feeling. You should see how often I wash my hands lol
First, if I did this, I would NEVER in a million years be able to put this back together! Second, brilliant job! 👏👏👏🥰🥰🥰
Yeah no. Nobody listen to this. A keyboard is full of electronic components and you will permanently kill it. The water will fry it plus the amount of heat loosen all the glue on the chips. It will not work. This is almost microwaving your phone level bullshit.
There was a whole ecosystem in that keyboard 😅 Very satisfying video
2:01 Seriously!? A condom wrapper! 😂
Exactly right yeah
Strawberry flavored? Maybe they thought it was gum.
@@_krimzen_same😭😭
He was munching on some salted nuys while baging, wow.
Они не хотели детей
This was my absolute all time favourite keyboard. It’s incredibly satisfying and nostalgic to see you clean it up so beautifully. How I would love to have one of these now 😊
looks amazing i never thought a keyboard that dirty could ever recover
That was and still is a great keyboard to type on, good work
Yeah, I agree 👍🏻, It's 2024 already and I still use this keyboard with Windows 11.
I use it with my Studio M1 Ultra and even have an extra on standby. Great keyboard.
A fantastic job. Thanks.
Just my type of video. GET IT? TYPE?! Here all week. :D
Thanks for the visit
*_Never thought anyone could recover. The most incredible work of the best_*
Thank you for your time. I appreciate it.
This looks beautiful, my first Apple keyboard too!
Outstanding.
Amazes me that this keyboard's only from 2003. It looks so much older at the start of the video, like something from the '80s. _Wow._
I've taken apart my old MacBook Pro (2008) to replace the keyboard and the trackpad (and to clean it out), but never to this extent. I'm amazed / impressed.
Probably owned by a smoker. 🤮
Eu tinha um desse em 2003 kkkk
この動画好きすぎて何回も見ちゃいます😂nice Video❤
Impressive! And so satisfying!
Fantastic!
Incredible! Such patience 👏
*Amazing Vídeo Dear Brother Restoration EG... Nice Job in repair this Apple Keyboard... Super Big Thumbs Up!!!* ✌👍
Many many thanks
Это гениально!!!
Выдержка!
Ты умничка!
Amazing work!!
Glad you like it!
Great asmr
Beautiful restauration, congratulations!
Thank you very much!
Nostálgico, tinha um destes no escritório do meu padrinho.. no final do anos 90!
Great 👍 work ❤
Thank you! Cheers!
❤the most nostalgic keyboard, my childhood keyboard
Thanks for the visit
Your work is amazing… but I also love the colors of that plastic caps discolored by time
Just like leather jacket or vintage sweatshirt I believe plastic tools sure can represent the history they’ve been through
Thanks for noticing the little details like the colors of the plastic caps! It's awesome to hear your thoughts on my work.❤️
Great work
Don’t mind people who are hating on you just ignore them you’re doing good
I loved this keyboard
Seu trabalho eh excelente !!!!
Obrigado eu realmente aprecio isso.
dude loved pistaccios so much he got the damn shells in the numpad
It’s been a long time since I’ve used an Apple keyboard. 👍⭐️
Apple really was ahead of the keyboard game back in the day I'm surprised this keyboard was made 20 years ago it looks like something made today
Another great relaxing vid.
Glad you enjoyed it
처음에 원래 그렇게 나온 레트로 키보드인줄알고 와 이쁘다 햇는데 ㅎㅎ
Como de costumbre excelente trabajo, MAESTRO!👏👏👏
¡Me alegra que lo hayas disfrutado!
15:02 Ahhhhh. That part is so satisfying in 2× speed!🤤
Glad you enjoy it!
Yes! The key installation sequence was mesmerizing.
I love this Channel
Regardless on if it was dirty before or if he dirtied it himself, the cleaning is all real which is the impressive part
I've never seen a keyboard with that many screws 😮
Cool!
WoW quel travail 😮
Merci pour la visite
Another great relaxing vid. Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
6:05 forbidden candy...
in all seriousness, there's something about seeing the interior components of these electronics that knocks something inside my brain, like, the last person to see this was a worker in a Malaysian factory 20-odd years ago, i wonder what their life is like, if they're alive, if they're still working in assembly, do they have a family, a partner, a home? i hope they were able to scrape together a somewhat comfortable life.
also those seed things under the keys look to be pumpkin seeds
Nice job!
Thanks for the visit
I wish I had time to do stuff like this.
⌨the old Macintosh keyboard 👍
Glad you enjoyed it
2:00 Durex strawberry?! LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!
what do you use to make they keys and board so nice white?
what was the app that you used in the end pls let us know
Those were pumpkin seeds. Roasted, I bet. Yummy!!!
Сразу подписка 🎉
8:46 왼쪽 아래에 벌레가... 이 키보드... 정체가 뭐야?ㄷㄷ
What products do you use to whiten?
6:05 forbidden orecchiette
My insomniac mind thanks you 😅
What is the name of the App at the End of the video to write to the Cell Phone?
رائع جدا
Those, on 1:54 are pumkin seeds peels, in Mexico we call them 'pepitas'.
I really like the video but the Durex disturbed me for a second, how does the packaging get in there
커버의 중요성
Awesome job, Restoration EG. Even I prefer Windows 10 rather than Windows 11, can the keyboard be compatible for Windows 10 computers?
yes i using on windows 11
Glad you enjoyed it! Yes this keyboard is compatible with Windows 10 computers. I tested it on Windows 10,11 and Android it is working without any problem.
I noticed that the keyboard is Swedish :)
So the principle to whitening plastic is to expose it to ultra violet light? If yes very interesting. Great job, congrats!
In combination with 12% H2O2 gel.
7:40 good soup✨
delicious
すげぇ、、
normally keyboard turning yellow cable should yellow first
so is that difficult let keyboard dirty than clean it?
Wow imagine what all this keyboard must have witnessed 😂
Pues es bastante complicado.
all, who are eating now, bon appetit :)
Yes, exactly :)
I like restoration videos, but I have no idea if this is a setup or not. I hope not. But really a part of a durex wrapped in the keyboard.
После того как автор нашёл в клавиатуре упаковку Durex, он стал более внимательным и аккуратным)
Пожелтевший пластик цвет не восстанавливает. Проверено - мин нет !
I remember putting these kind of apple keyboards together on a production line back in the early 90s in Ireland.
iPad kids computers back in the day:
У нас такие же в школе до сих пор
thought my headphones were broken halfway through
Sorry for that, Thanks for the visit❤️❤️
was this keyboard unearthed from a tomb?
와 새거 됐네
마음에 드셨다니 다행입니다!
Most Apple products break down long before they turn yellow
those were pumpkin seeds
I never seen those diagonal arrows before. What are they? ⌨
↖︎ (Home key) ↘︎ (End key), Thanks for the visit
For those wondering - "hair oxygen creme" is peroxide.
You accidently swapped Z and Y. Otherwise great Vid :D
Repeat after me: "'Because it's an Apple' isn't a good enough reason to throw my keyboard in the compost pile."
looks like it sat in an old storage shed and then got tossed out with the garbage 😆
Heard hair bleaching developer is used on mid century modern plastic furniture/shelving to get it white again
👌
I prefer the apple keyboard on the Windows keyboard
Thanks for the visit
Windows keyboardv
A softer way to say "apple controls me"
Ah, the chicqlet tray KB...
😅 i genuinely thought this was a wooden keyboard at first glance of the thumbnail. Even went so far as to missread the title as some sort of yellow wood apple tree
If anyone knows of a similar channel where the person talks through and explains each thing they are doing instead of doing it silently, please mention it, I would appreciate it very much.
If it had been watered in time, the squash might have grown
Luckily I scored one of these off eBay sealed.
Lavou ta novo
問題是新鍵盤不貴🤔
uin mostro, abrazo
Muy bueno. Yo intenté hacer lo mismo. Arduo trabajo y al final jeje, no me funciono 😂😂
¡Gracias! ¡Estoy seguro de que puedes!
@@resEGsi si. En alguna otra oportunidad. Gracias.
저렇게까지 더러워졌는데도 쓰고 있었다는게 신기하다
