Early-bird: No Hassle Key Retrobriting? {appetizer}

Dear Patreons of a certain level!

Here's a video that leads on from the Atari 800XL Extreme Refurb, after which a lot of people asked, "What about those yellow keys?"

Retrobriting yellow lettering on old retro keyboards usually involves removing all the keys with a keycap puller, and in some cases desoldering the shift lock key. I wanted to test whether it was possible to get a similar effect by cheating a little. Let's find out! 

Let me know what you think in the comments! I'm always open to making changes before the video goes public in a day or three...

Also, please join me in welcoming all the new Patreons, and thank you all so much for your support!

Your friend in retro,
Chris aka Թҽɾíƒɾɑϲtíϲ

Good advice! 👍

LOL. And great that you didn't try the peroxide to all of the sides of the keys, as the other characters in the bottom part of each one would have vanished.

Great minds!... 👍🕹️
