  • Hi everyone, thank you for 25:57 of your time. In this video I restored HP Pavilion G6 that nobody want to use it. The laptop was given to me by the previous owners, otherwise will be trashed. I pick it up and restore it, just to show that this laptop is still useful and not for a trash.
    Laptop specs: CPU AMD E2 3000, RAM 8GB DDR3, 240GB SSD.

And it works fine ! =) Greetings from France =)

    11:15 When you glue this back together with super glue, you can make this 10 times stronger if you put a layer of toillet paper first, cut the toillet paper a bit bigger than the crack you are trying to glue, than apply the glue on top of the toillet paper, if you have multilayered toillet paper, seperate the layers so you end up with a very thin layer, you may laugh at this but i saw this trick when The Retro Future made his elongated game boy video, he also uses this trick, and i tested it on a broken off fin from my cpu cooler and it actually works very well! It would not hold if i tried to glue the fin back on like you do with the bezel of your display, but with that single layer of toillet paper, its very strong, the cpu fan is in my pc now and has been for the last 6 months and it still goes strong! So give that a try if the bezel cracks again, you will be stunned how good this trick works! Great video man!

    Можно всё сделать проще... Берем обычный канцелярский скотч, и наклеиваем его на серые элементы корпуса. При отклеивании скотча, на нем остается верхний защитный лаковый слой. После очистки корпуса от лака, серая краска легко смывается обычным изоприловым спиртом. После отмывки корпуса от краски он становится идеально черным, и сохраняется металлический цвет логотипа "HP". После сушки покрываем всё это матовым лаком в несколько слоев. Всё... ;)

So i was searching frantically on RUclips and I stumbled upon your channel. I was waiting so much for that video all this time . Your channel and work is incredibly . You are working methodically and you are doing something that helps others understand that a laptop with little bit of time can get improved and there is no reason for us to throw away our laptops to buy new ones.

    Magnificent video, we have today to recover items so it's a glory after it's all very expensive so being able to use what we have for longer is ideal!!!,
