How to clean a CPS2 case?

[mR_CaESaR]

Painting is nice, but i'm not convinced peroxide won't work... I know it's usually used to remove yellowing from white plastics.... and I know for sure it works to remove yellowing from grey plastics. I just can't find a single example of someone using this method on an ABS plastic that's blue or green.

I tried it on old Namco pink and blue gun shells... Didn't do anything from my experience.

Used the same methods to remove the yellowing from my Naomi Universal.

Painting is nice, but you just don't get the same finish. In my case, I had no way to fix them without painting.

Thanks for the inspiration. Given that I’ll be mounting mine on the back of a MVS big red, think I’ll go with the red:black motif.

Hey guys,
Do anyone have empty A and B cases by the way ?
If yes please MP.

Sometimes the cases are so badly discoloured, scratched or cracked that the only option is filler and repainting.
For filler I recommend tamiya putty, I've used it on a few cases now.
The serial number decal comes off fairly easily with a hairdryer and a sharp knife to lift one corner, use double sided tape to re-apply.
The main decal only ever comes off in bits, leaving it to soak in warm water helps.

The case I'm working on next is an unrepairable Rev 3 A+B with extensive acid and general corrosion damage and much case abuse ... who uses a CPS2 as a cutting mat!

Thanks for the tamiya putty suggestion. I ordered a XvsSF CPS2 board on eBay recently and it got a crack during shipping that runs to the edge of the case(about 3 inches in length). I’m going to give the putty a whirl. Also will take the time to clean up the case while I’m at it(it sure needs it)
