Tysy is one of the better channels but 99% of restoration videos around are “watch me clean this thing that I intentionally made dirty beforehand”…
The Retro Future made a hilarious parody of those videos, I think he was pretty fed up with them
I loved the Retro Future even before he took a stance on these fake restos. It’s a bit crazy how much of the old console resto scene is quite fake after seeing Elliot’s videos about it. I respect the hell out of that guy
on the one hand that’s a gross yellow-brown color
on the other hand it’s tantalizingly close to a burnished gold. They should try to bring out some sort of metallic tone on it and just take it the rest of the way there.
Tysytube is great. I also highly recommend OddTinkering for console restorations. They do a great job.
