Cleaning a resurfaced GCN disc! Round 1!

Follow
Restore and Replay: Video Game Preservation

Round 1 of our resurfacing residue repair videos!

So check it out. These games were professionally resurfaced (not by me or anyone I know), but they forgot to wipe off the resurfacing compound, so now we've got a thin later of aggregate film and debris on the discs! Not to mention THE GAMES DON'T PLAY. We'll get these all fixed up.

Plus I show you a trick on how to clean out the center ring if you do happen to get water in there. This video has it all, Gamecube stuff, Novus, cleaners, gloves. But the whole point of it all is to make sure if you do end up with a game in this condition that you clean it correctly! That compound can be nasty stuff on surfaces if left untreated!

Tools we used:
All Purpose Cleaner
Cloths
Electric Air
Novus 2


Tools I use! And affiliated links to buy them on Amazon!
(Let me know if you are outside of the US, I have suggested tools for most international countries too!)
