This Atari 65XE didn't look too bad on the outside, but the inside was a complete nightmare: dust, rust, dirt, insects, spider webs, and even some kind of cocoons! Where did this poor Atari come from, the trash??In spite of all of that, we managed to clean it really well, although we had to end up using hydrochloric acid for some of the toughest rust. We also ended up doing some retrobrighting to restore the original colors in the case and the keys.
In the end, we leave it almost as new except for the keyboard membrane, which was irreparably broken.
