bulkchart32 Posted June 11, 2020 Report Share Posted June 11, 2020 not certain if this is the right section to ask this question in since it really isn't a repair but don't know where else to post. one of my xbox's i bought to repair has something on it that almost looks like spots of dried mud but it isn't cleaning off like mud so i don't know what it is. i have tried denatured alcohol and goof off but neither are very effective. those cleaners lighten the spots but don't remove them. what is a good cleaner that won't hurt the black plastic(and the green xbox jewel in the center)?

It might be better to post some pics of the stains/marks you are trying to remove. Cheers SS Dave Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing.

SS_Dave Posted June 12, 2020 Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 The one with CT on it would be ok for a sand and paint Xbox. The white spots look a bit like paint maybe and the other one you could try some car plastic restoration prouducts. You could try something like this on the cloudy looking one ' Cheers SS Dave Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
