As an upholstery/car guy who loves your videos, I have a tip. Buy a good steamer like a mcculloch 1370 and some plastic trim tools. The steamer would remove any grime or dirt without chemicals, and the plastic trim tools will give you an opportunity to scrape or pry without worrying about damaging any plastic. The steamer would be handy for a lot of other tasks as I've noticed you're a neat freak like me, haha. You'd be amazed at what you can clean with just steam. Anyways, I'm just throwing it out there.

That noise is an issue on ALL LC Series Machines, including the Classic, Classic II and Color Classic/Color Classic II Macs (They all use the same or similar board design. The issue is in two parts: Logic Board Caps going bad, thus the Logic board needs to be recapped. The second part is the LC PSU, the caps on the 5/12V side needs to need to be replaced as well. Recapping the LC PSU is simple if it is the Astek PSU. The only issue is that you need to get the same physical sized cap. I did several LC PSU and the proper uf and voltage caps but some were larger than what was in there and caused a bit of problem in closing the PSU case.. Recapping the Logic board, take it slow and your time to recap it. Good luck. If you need some more advise on this, reply and I'll send you my email for more detailed correspondence.

I was repairing LC models for the past 6 years. Repaired about a 200 of them. The squealing is coming from the audio IC because of the bad caps. Had about 40 that did the same :) Just my 2 cents. Recap and wash the board throughly.

Yep. There seems to be a fine line between enough perfectionism that has its merits and too much of it that it starts the "ball of diminishing returns" rolling. I guess right between those two is the "sweet spot."

I know barely anything about computers. But watching David's videos set to Anders Jensen's synthwave is so relaxing and worth it.

Close to 1M Subs... I can’t wait for him to reach that milestone! :D 2:38 sounds JUST LIKE a screaming Gecko or a tea kettle going off...

I LOVE the music in your videos. Just have to say. As though the videos aren't already enough 80's awesomeness, it just finishes off the whole aesthetic 🙂

My dad had this exact model, with the matching Apple Laser printer, the Scanner and microphone, with all the booklets and such. My brother put it for sale few years ago, but i don't know if he ever sold it or not, but with my dad being a heavy smoker, it certainly needed a good retrobright. And the speaker also made the exact same noise after a while, as well!

I was wondering: are you on a first name basis with Sally's beauty supply considering all the retro brighting you do?

Everybody is on a first-name basis with Sally’s!

Man I miss the old System 7 look and feel. I wish I could have a system with a similar GUI as the old MacOS classic on my actual Linux machine.

I'm sure something's out there, after all there is GNUstep.

nothing better than a brand new video after work... thanks!

I had an LC Mac growing up! So good to see them again! In fact my first interior cleaning, which began my career in computer hardware, was an LC Mac. It had a ton of dust bunnies and it was a daycare computer and it had a large wooden domino in the floppy drive. LOL!

I think the Performa 475 used the same case, as that looks just like the one I had, save that I modded mine with a blue LED for the HD activity light! Sadly, I no longer have the case, but I do still have the motherboard with the max amount of RAM it would take, plus a “real” 68040, not the 68LC040 in the original Performa. I may even have the SCSI HD with System 7 on it somewhere...

The employees in the store must be thinking "why does that guy needs so much hydrogen peroxide? He's bald anyway"

Great ! Wonderful ! The efect of hydrogen peroxyd is really splendid, the difference between before and after treatment is really surprising !

12:50 is like meditation for my soul, I love just chillin and watching this long but relaxing sequence.

9:39 Does anyone remember that in his first Retro bright video that the store on the left was RadioShack?

Ironic that it doesn't come with a stand Oh Apple you never changed did you

But they didn't sell a stand for it at all, nevermind for $1000. If you wanted to adjust it you either propped it up on something or you just bought a better monitor.

Of course that it doesn't come with a stand. It is 80s CRT. The BOTTOM is THE stand.

That LC had a beautifully designed case. I was mightily tempted by it back in the day.

man what a gorgeous computer, one day i hope to get into old restorations like this. keep up the good work man!

2:35 "HEY, MA! THE TEA'S BOILIN'!"

I remember in the computer lab of my elementary school in the early 1990s they had a couple of color Macintosh computers with a whole bunch of black and white Macintosh computers. Everyone would rush to try to get to the color computers. Can you show the recapping of the LC once you have the capacitors?

WOW!! That's a massive improvement!! Kudos dude!!

Can't wait to kick back and watch this when I get home!! Thanks for making Monday bearable!!
