worth it or not worth it ? - Alberto Fenini - 03-20-2010
ciao a tutti,
being a rainy day and having received few days ago an HP97 box in used conditions 
I have tried to restore it, and I'll will appreciate your comments or suggestions
at first I have removed all the old tape, and protected the items that I did want to preserve from painting
then I have tried both with spray and with a roller brush to paint to the closest color I have found 
well ... what do you think ? Has anyone ever tried to restore cardbox ?
take care all of you and have a nice weekend, Alberto

I know, I know, btw, I haven't written it, but of course I haven't finished yet, the lettering will also be restored, I'll post more pics when it will be done ...

Nice job on the box. I'll vote for Worth It.
