I've got an M100 with a severely yellowed upper shell, and I'm wondering what remediation possibilities I have.
I've heard of retrobrite, but I've also heard that it can make plastics more brittle. For something that's a portable computer, brittle (even if only slightly more than original) sounds like a bad idea. Had anyone ever tried painting one of these shells? Are there paints that would hold up to actual use? It'd be like painting the case on a keyboard, and I'd worry that it was going to chip or rub off very quickly. I poked around the mechanical keyboard community and found references to using Krylon's Fusion paints, anyone have any experience with them? Also, does anyone know what kind of plastic the M100 shell is? I'd like to find some similar plastics to experiment with before I risk an M100 shell. -- Michael Kohne mhko...@kohne.org Anything real you do that's important will be scary. Having kids.
