Polishing Front End of Sega CD Model 1

Awesome! Thanks so much!

I took multiple pictures, but I wish I took more at exactly same angle and lighting.

But as I'm hanging out at my parents house, I kept picking it back up to admire the improvement. It's a nice feeling.

But I will plan on documenting my experience along with other recommendations for the blog so I can pass on the knowledge.

My Sega CD should be due in next week so it will be nice to see the condition in person.

While we're on the subject on Magic Erasers, is there any consoles or materials I shouldn't use it on?

Think of Magic eraser as a very fine sandpaper sponge, avoid painted surfaces and logos. Also a concern of wiping out a gloss finish or plastic that has a different color casting at the surface vs white plastic underneath.

Perfect. Thank you

Hey, I saw your Sega CD on that instantaneous telegram service the youngsters are always raving about.

Looks fantastic, racket!

Yeah I asked about polishing before I decided which model to buy on eBay. This one ended up being in better condition than I expected. There's a few minor marks on it, but fairly pristine. I'm tempted to try to work on the imperfections, but I'm afraid I'd wear down the pristine parts in the process..... thoughts?

Yeah they are super abrasive. Also be careful with textured surfaces (stuff like NES-N64 cartridges).
