MacBook: *gets extremely dirty*
Nathan: *Hold my gallons of eucalyptus oil and methalyted spirits*
good meme
MoonlightCheese wait why is he drinking that (I’m joking lol)
MoonlightCheese he’s Aussie, and us Aussies don’t use your filthy imperial system
Agree
@@flipz4dayz116 You young'un Aussies might not. Us mix-generational households with members who grew up pre-Metric and those post-Metric still use the Imperial system in casual usage like when eyeballing how far away something is. :P
that smile when he said he was gonna clean it with a healthy dose of eucalyptus oil
Probably the same smile he does to his gf when he says “Netflix and chill”
It's at 7:20 if anyone was wondering
:))))

We love eucalyptus oil!
What’s up with all these people saying first it doesn’t matter just watch the great content

I dream of having a giant drum full of eucalyptus oil and dunking all my Macs in it.
Phil Swift would say, "that's a lot of damage!"
You could do that with mineral oil, which is non conductive
Laptops gets very dirty
Nathan: eucalyptus oil, here I come
Psivewri: Getting a MacBook Pro for free
Also Psivewri: Let me return it
MacOS 12.0 High Eucalyptus Oil
Why is some red eyed koala’s high?
Freaky timing! I found one of these in a dumpster and it's every bit as filthy with some dents and scuffs as well. I managed to borrow a charger and it boots, so now to clean it up! The thermal paste guide in this vid will be super helpful :)
It is always fantastic to see your content! Both informative and satisfying. It really has inspired me to fix up old machines and get them just like new. It's a fun hobby and I'm happy you helped introduce me and many others to it.

7:20 Facial expression tells us "of course, this is that line you were expecting from me, and I'm glad to please you...".
Great video as always Nathan. Something similar actually happened to me the other day, where I bought an old Macbook Pro for around $120, and the seller asked if I wanted another old one (same model suprringly) for free. These laptops with an SSD and RAM upgrade is still decend machine today.
Hey Nathan, you doing alright? Seemed a bit down during the video. Hope all is well though!
He seemed totally fine to me. =)
Very nice work! It's inspiring. I inherited one of these awhile back and I think I should finally start working on it. It's pretty crusty, it bootloops, and needs a new keyboard. Wish me luck!

I have a Mid-2012 13" MBP that I got in Oct. 2022 and back in April 2023 I got a new MagSafe port for it but then I broke the keyboard ribbon cable by accident so up until recently I used a USB keyboard with it. Not very comfortable! It has a Kingston 240GB SSD with macOS Ventura on it with OpenCore, and a small 60GB partition with OS X Mountain Lion. Thanks to you and Hugh Jeffreys's videos I bought a keyboard from iFixit and managed to install it myself. I need to replace my lid as it has no webcam cable and the back panel is separating from the display. I also need a new BIL (Battery Indicator Light) as mine ripped and now it won't sleep when I close the lid. I also plan to upgrade the stock 4GB of RAM to 16GB. Your videos are an inspiration!
By the way you spelled GeForce wrong in the description I’m sorry 😐 i can’t help it
Haha

Him: Eucalyptus oil intensified

“I don’t know how people can use a laptop this dirty”
My friends: well....
I've been doing computer repair as a side business since I was in high school in the late 90's, and doing repairs for myself since the late 80's, and I can this is no where near as bad as some systems I've seen, I had one lady around mid 06 bring me a dell inspiron deskop(I don't remember the exact model) it looked in rough shape from the start, so I had it out on my carport to blow the dust out before I started to even figure out what was wrong, and when I opened the side panel HOLY HELL!!! the amount of roaches that poured out. after all the roaches had left I sprayed down my carport, and parts of my front, and side yard, I called the lady, back and said NOPE!! I'm not working on this, but you owe me $20 USD for bug spray for all the roaches that came out of your machine, or i can throw it in the trash, she grunted on the phone FINE!!! I left the machine outside, she came to pick it up the next day, payed the $20, and I've never seen her since.
“This video (like most on this channel) is sponsored by ARCTIC MX-4 Thermal Compound Paste” ... or at least it should be! Your vid’s are the reason why I own a tube! Also b/c of your vids I have the courage to open up my late 2011 MBP and replace the battery, ram, & hard drive. I don’t have any Eucalyptus magic, but I’ll do my best to get it clean. I’ve had it since it was new and I’m curious to see how it compares to the ones you have done on this channel. I figure that since I’m in there I might as well keep digging and clean off and replace the thermal paste. What do you reckon? I’ll be using ifixit’s guides for the replacement parts, but am not quite sure yet about how to get all the way to the CPU for the thermal paste. ifixit may have a guide for that as well... I just haven’t looked yet. Any advice you may have is welcomed. I’m a long time subscriber to your channel and feel that I have really benefited from watching your videos. I’m grateful that you are willing to share your talent with the world. Keep up the good work!

In Asia, even utterly broken used macbook fetch for a high price. "Can be used for parts" usually is at the description when it looks like it have been ran over a car and snapped in half (the motherboard unibody part, not the hinge) while costing of at least $100-150 for that description

Great machines. I'm still using one today. Just need a couple of upgrades (SSD and some more ram).
I have a 2014 and I just got a 1TB SSD drive in the mail to upgrade from the 256gb! Can’t wait! I appreciate your appreciation for old technology! So many of them can still be used today!

Interesting you did this video as I have a mid-2010 Macbook A1342 I use as my lightweight daily driver when I'm not otherwise abusing my poor main Win10 gaming rig.
Sure it can be a little sluggish coming out of standby (I forgot to install a SSD before customising and updating the system), but it's otherwise a nice little workhorse for light YT or playing Diablo II: Lord of Destruction when I'm in town at games day (over in Wagga).
One upgrade I should have done after a bit of extra research was the RAM, going from 4GB (2x2GB) to 8GB (2x4GB) when I could have pushed it to 16GB (2x8GB) for not much more when buying the replacement ram from Australia Computer Online up in Sydney.
The battery still has a good amount of life left as it takes like 3 or 4 hours to get down to 50% without mains (such as when I get hit with a blackout here). That is more than enough time for me to get word out to my common contacts I'm currently in a blackout, get a few YT vids under my belt (gotta love having Optus 4G Mobile Broadband modems on UPS's) and put it to standby before catching a few hours sleep to ride out the power outage.
Broken Mac: FIX ME
Nathan: Hello guys welcome back to another video 📹
I'm rather a ThinkPad guy (fitted with Linux) but your previous videos featuring old MacBooks fix/cleanup inspired me to pick up one myself, namely white plasticky A1342. Was joy to disassemble, clean-up & re-assemble it. With SSD, more RAM, patched Catalina and after through clean-up it's very pleasant to use :)
However no luck in finding eucalyptus oil in my country
I don't know why, but I love these old restorations videos. Thanks
I have a case, screen protector and keyboard cover. I had a casing for the bottom, but it held in heat so I only use the display case. Every time I rub it down to clean it (the whole thing on the outside) it looks like brand new. For $2000, its definitely worth buying a $20 case with keyboard cover

Your production value is through the roof!! But don't worry, the roof was carefully disassembled and then reassembled again - along with a bit of a eucalyptus oil clean while the roof was off.
1:26 I can't. JUST CAN'T! I agree with you. I currently own a mid-2010 as my daily computer but am thinking of an upgrade soon.
wanna sell it to me?
Man, new subscriber here! Been binge-watching your MacBook restoration videos since last night and I can’t stop! I’m currently saving up and hopefully I’ll be able to get a cheap 2nd hand MacBook that I always wanna get and do my own restoration soon! Great content man! 👍🏻👍🏻
Great video! You've actually inspired me to restore a late 2011 MBP I was going to list for parts on eBay. I have fond memories of the mid 2010 a1278 that I bought new.
It's always strange to see how some people let their laptops get this filthy. It's only a few minutes every now and then to get it clean.
I like that you got that laptop for free. You were the perfect person to receive it for free because you got it to look and run like fresh again.
Nice work!
I also got a free 13" MacBookPro5,5 from 2010, though it's sporting the 2.26 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo CPU. A local school was throwing it away, and my mother happened to scoop it up, complete with a working AC charger. It had the original 250 GB 5400 RPM HDD from Hitachi, and I'm still using that as my Time Machine backup drive. It also only came with 2 GB of DDR3 1066 MHz RAM and an NVIDIA GeForce 9400M 256 MB graphics chip.
I immediately cleaned it up, threw in 4 GB of DDR3 1066 MHz RAM from my 2010 Alienware M11x R1 (that now has 6 GB RAM), and bought a cheap Patriot Blaze 480 GB SSD for it. It works beautifully, even with 10.14.2 Mojave (I used DOSdude's fix to get it past High Sierra). In fact, that's what I'm using to type this comment. I love the 1280x800 screen and the keyboard. It really doesn't feel like an old laptop for just basic tasks.
So, eucalyptus oil can clean those stubborn filthy gunks on the outside casing?
Alright, Nathan. I'm sold. Gotta grab some eucalyptus oil myself to clean my own stuff too.
I have a 13 mid 2009 MacBook Pro as a backup. I replaced the DVD drive with a second hdd bay with a second ssd for Windows 10. Run the latest Catalina using dosdude1 patch and it surprisingly runs well. Windows 10 runs really well esp with the 8gb ram installed. Not bad for it’s age.
Who was waiting for him to clean the screen with his eucalyptus spray. 😍
Nathan what do you do when you run out of eucalyptus oil?
He never runs out lol.
Seller: eh you can keep it, it broken anyways

Hey since you're applying thermal paste to the die itself you should actually make sure every part of it is covered, letting the heatsink apply it might miss some places and make it not as great as it could be
When the heatsink is pressed back on, it will flow over the entire die in a thin, even layer.
Nice restoration! Cor, $150 for an upgrade to 500GB HDD is extremely expensive! My 6GB Acer Aspire from 2011 (with a 1st gen Core i5 CPU) had a 500GB HDD as standard. Nowadays, a 500GB 2.5in drive will cost less than £20 and a 1TB 2.5in HDD can be had relatively cheaply as well. A 500GB SSD can be had on eBay for about £50-£60 as well, which is also reasonably priced.
The Unibody Macbooks were (IMO) the last decent ones, as after the 2012 Unibody, they went with soldered CPUs and RAM, proprietory (and later soldered) SSDs, batteries that were difficult to replace, removal of the DVD optical drive, and removal of various different ports.
seller: it doesnt work.
macbook: turns on. '-'
Best restoration clean up video in a while. I think you should consider running an emulator
Any computer ever on eBay: *is dirty*
Nathan: *violently whips out eucalyptus oil* “Welcome to UA-cam”
Started watching your channel recently, I used mx-4 & crucial bx500 ditto for upgrading my laptop before i stumbled upon your channel. 😂
Think that's the alike factor
I’m happy when psivewri uploads a vid
8:42 That was really nice and unexpected!
Ive tried this personally on my 2012 retina 15 inch with the base i7 and it helped but it only lasted like 1 1/2 years. Might have been my application but whatever.
What I tried was liquid metal. It did/does help on my 2012 retina i7 but Id love to see you test it out on one or several different macbook pros that had thermal issues.
Dont change the fan curves but just do benchmarks and thermal stress tests between thermal paste and liquid metal.
It would be cool to see if there is a way to extend the life (Thermal wise) of one of these laptops. Since a good bit of them didn't survive due to components failing due to thermal related issues.
Good video as always, reminds me I should open up my MacBook and replace the thermal paste.
it's the dirtiest laptop screen I've ever seen (I've ever seen)
someone make that a rap song lol
Sometimes just cleaning them out is all it takes. I got a 17" Dell laptop with a first-gen i5 for about $50 not too long ago (the screen it uses sells for more these days by itself) because it wouldn't run properly. Turned out it just had 10 years worth of dust and a completely blocked fan. Once I took it apart and cleaned it, it was good as new.
I recently got a free Mid-2012 13in Macbook Pro for free from my local recycle drop off with the Magsafe charger(it's in good shape), and did the cleaning, and I'm waiting for parts like the HDD cable, battery(my current battery has well over 1,500 cycles, and is mostly cooked, but no bulge), rubber feet, and SSD to come in the mail next week, these machines are for sure still very usable for daily task on Catalina, and I might even do the unofficial update to Big Sir. thankfully mine on my had some minor scratches on the bottom, but the hing clutch cover was cracked, and I don't feel like taking the display off to replace it, so I've covered it up with black electrical tape, and at the 3 foot rule if you are not looking for it you can't really tell lol!
You inspired me to fix my own computers, might be a good side business
Hello! Good day!
I hope you are doing well and safe and sound, despite of the challenges we are facing and experiencing amid the COVID-19 pandemic. I am glad to know that you are safe since you are one of the greatest UA-cam video creators I am following and currently subscribed to.
I am a big fan of yours from the Philippines. I am Jerico Alba, a 2nd Year Mass Communication student and I watch how you restore PCs and other devices using your iconic eucalyptus oil and your skills in restoration of PC components (e.g. the laptop from 1990s, and repairing many Macbooks).
However, you told from one of your videos that you have so many laptops that you have restored and you have no idea of where and who to give it to? And have you mentioned that it can be sent to viewers?
I am one of your greatest fans since I subscribed you when you still have less than 100K subscribers, and I love sending likes to your videos. I have also recommended you to my friends and luckily, they are now an avid fan of yours.
I also learned a lot of things in restoring a PC and laptop. However, the profits I earn from fixing them only benefits to our daily livelihood, and I still struggle for online classes due to the COVID-19 pandemic, for I only rent a laptop to use, just to pursue my education.
I hope you can notice my message and be one of the lucky fans that will be able to receive a free restored MacBook :( Moreover, the video was uploaded in September 15, which is my birthday.
I wish you a happy holidays, my friend! If so, this will be very lucky and best holiday for me. Thank you very much and I will still continue to be one of your avid fan no matter what! I love you and your videos! :)

A bit off topic, but very nice lighting set up! The introduction looks very nice and vibrant!
actually i got same mid 2010 for free of my neighbour w swollen battery. Replaced the battery, put ssd instead hdd, upgraded ram and now its my primary facebook/yt machine. Its very interesting how even 10y old computer can be restored and used on daily basis even today. Good job apple on those older macbooks !

A such PSU is not difficult to fix at all! I'd definitely have cut the wire and used my soldering iron!
What can you do with on of these devices? First, not use Yosemite. You can patch it to Catalina without much graphics problems. iMovie will not work, but luckily the latest non Metal iMovie will run on Catalina.
The latest GarageBand compatible with Catalina is the latest non Metal GarageBand anyway.
If really you don't want to have to worry about Metal patching... install High Sierra!

Laptop : 1 half a heart
Eucalyptus oil: max health
Normally 4 pin fans there is plus/minus/RPM/fan detect easy trick to force fan on full speed all the time is to disconnect the RPM pin the PC will still detect the fan is there but won't be able to force it to stay off or low speed... It sometimes works with 3 pin fans just leaving the plus/minus connected... Usually laptops have 4 pin fans and if fan isn't detected it could prevent from booting. I'm guessing mac fans are the same... Or you can use mac fan control app if compatible
That 🍏 sticker on the palm rest 😹😹😹 like it wasn't apple enough already, no they had to use the sticker to remind them! 😋

Definitely one of your most satisfying cleanings.
i cant imagine how someone could let one of these things get to such bad condition, i still have a 13 inch from when i got it almost 9 years ago and i still clean it almost every day,

You probably shouldn’t actually use the brush for cleaning the board. It could lead to a build up in static electricity.
Watching your videos is very enjoying and motivating. Big Thanks!
Another question - should I disassemble my own MBP and clean out the inside? Does it do anything for performance and battery life? I'm sure my laptop is quite dusty after almost 4 years of use.
Me:watches a cleaning laptop video
My lapop:HELLO
Edit laptop
Is it really a good idea to use Threadlocker on the hinges? If you need to replace the screen in the future it would be a huge arse.
Love your work. Your videos always make me smile when I see old devices get back to life.😍
My wife has this same laptop. Still runs but needs new battery and a SSD would give it more life.
This is basically my desktop but as a Mac and a laptop. :(
Hi, hows that 2012 macbook pro that You ordered? Can we expect some another video about it? :> how it works in 2020 :> maybe some final cut pro 2012 macbook pro tests with 1080p? Anyway best video i have seen in a while on YT. Thanks for effort
most of his videos are the same... daymn, i can't get enough!
I have this exact same MacBook Pro, however it has a MagSafe 1 connector instead.
I bought a Dell latitude e7240 for my mom (with the components) for $200 a few months ago. Now, the laptop was overheating so I figured "why not reapply the thermal paste"? And for some reason the motherboard stopped working. It stayed stuck on the Dell screen. 2 motherboard replacements later, no luck. I have no idea what the problem is.
