Yeah - I think I saw it at BIT 1! :lol:

I'm not sure you would need to sand the marker off - I think the Krylon would cover it. Best thing to do is try it on a small test area (underside of the C64 is where I did all my experimenting and test-runs). If it doesn't cover, just get some white Krylon and spray it with that first, and then get your new colour on top.

I can't use the usual acidic stuff, it would ruin the plastic.
Nope - there's no way to get rid of the yellowing of plastic other than to paint over it. I've asked this question on other forums before now, and it appears that there is nothing that can be done. :(

PAINT IT - YOU KNOW YOU WANNA!!!
