Recently I picked up a 16C on ebay. The electronics, keys and display all work perfect. The case shows signs of a very hard life, the aluminum has rough scratches and the case is chipped and dinged.

Anyone have any advice for cleaning up the aluminum and plastic case?

Thanks,
Dan

HP 10C bezel replacement and HP 15C bezel restoration

Cheers, Geoff

scroll down to the HP-15C posting which has the technique for restoring a bezel while it is still in place.

Your book would be great.
Every thought of setting up a google form to tally they interested?
