Anyone ever tried this stuff to clean a system?

Talk about just about anything else that is non-gaming here, but keep it clean

Wow! That is just about as amazing at the retro-bright gel on SNES and NES consoles!

I might have to try that with my Gamegear when I get some free time to mess around with my old consoles. I also have four Genesi that could use a little more thorough cleaning as well.

I use car scratch/polish and WD-40 on all my black systems to get them nice and shiney.
Be careful using it on a handheld, its not good for the screen.

I did and the gamegear conveniently goes off camera several times. Try it if you want but don't blame me when you get a haze on the screen.

Definitely looks good on the opaque stuff, I'd be worried about the clear screen too. Also should take stuff apart so you just have an empty shell before doing anything like this.
