I will restore this Arcade Joystick for my PlayStation that I restored and upgraded recently. The controller is quite yellow ans the joystick sometimes gets stuck. The controller was made by Asciiware in the 90's. And it has extra switches to simulate automatically pressing buttons.

After disassembling the controller I cleaned the circuit board with isopropyl alcohol and oiled the joystick. To temove teh yellowing I used a retrobrighting method explained more in this video:    • How to remove yellowing from old plastic (...   Since creating that tutorial I made also this box to have better contol of the temperature and to allow me easily use any size container. More about the box on this video:    • Making the Ultimate Retrobrighting Box  

Once I had removed the yellowingthere was still some marks left on the shell. I was able to remove those with a magic sponge. I also didn't want to use the hydrogen peroxide on the cord which had some yellowing too. I was able to remove that too with the sponge. The Playstation logo on the contoller was damaged so I repainted it on the shell.

Thanks for watching, I hopy you enjoyed the video!
