I was given a pair of Performa 580CD's that had spent decades in a smoke-filled apartment. Now we are trying to restore them! You can see the first two parts of this "Smoke Machine" series here:

Part 2:    • Tar-Stained Performa 580CD Restoratio...

In this third part of the series, we do a deep clean of machine 2, and watch as the plastics disintegrate before our eyes.
