Have you ever tried to repair one of your old retro game boxes?
No to be disrespectful but that giant barcode looks horrible. Why didn't you just make a scan of the Mega Drive on the opposite side of the box, print that on stickerpaper, cut it out with scissors and stick it over the damaged side?
Anyone know what pvc glue he used? Also would archival book glue be better?
Instead of making a bar code to cover the damage, you could make a high-quality color copy of the same graphic on the undamaged side of the box, cut it, line it up on the damaged side, and glue it.
Great work mate and great advice!
There must be a market to scan these old vintage product boxes and clean them up in photoshop at hi-res, print them out on a giant label sticker and place it onto a chipboard and cut the chipboard into the flattened box dimensions so you can fold it into the box shape.
Stuff like this is always so fascinating for me to watch. I've heard of ironing boxes before but never have done so myself, so I like to see the process in action. YES! Share how bad tape is for fixing ANYTHING! Please do not use tape people...
You're very welcome Mike. We surely enjoyed having you aboard. If you like to mention the Q&A article on a upcoming video, feel free to do so bro. 8^)
For a box that was pretty well thrashed this came out spot on - well done.
I normally shudder at the thought of using ink markers / paint to restore boxes, but I make an exception for this one as it was so bad. Good job.
Which color pencils/markers did you use? Cause wont these turn in a different color after some time/discoloring in contrast to the original colors of the box?
Maybe I missed it but what kind of pens did you use to colour the scuffed parts please?
Loved watching this. We used to buy presents for the kids from charity shops in our frugal past and I have spent hours tidying up boxes to look newer. Never thought of ironing them! . Is that PVA in the glue pot? If you have a decent printer and scanner, you could scan the good graphics and print and paste them to the bad side but that speedy packing slip thing is way easier.
What a fantastic video man!! Learned alot and I appreciate you putting this one together!
Instead of a price tag maybe you could have printed that image and stuck that
Hi Mike.
Could you use the markers in this video to restore the edge of a paperback book ?
The packing slip idea, genius 😉
Recently found your channel and am binge watching them. Got to say that I love your work! Keep it up. Definitely looking to take on some of your suggestions for my own little room.
