  • Hi everyone, thank you for 23:40 of your time. In this video I restore, upgrade and mod Toshiba L875. The changes that I done, from i3 2370M to i7 2670QM, RAM 8GB and 240GB SSD. Note: Not all HM76 Chipset Laptops will fully support i7 2ng gen CPUs, know issues are shutdown under full CPU usage and overheating. Recommended i7 3rd gen.
    Sprays colors: Mellon Yellow FB-110 and Anthracite Mid Gray, booth are matte and Blue low pressure. ( Blue stands for type not actual blue )

      @@ComputersAndTechAndAndrew Well it does look gorgeous... but if you don't apply at least 2 coats of clear, that pretty colors (great combination, by the way!) will be stripping down in a few weeks. Maybe it don't seems to be so obvious but hands sure does a lot of friction on surfaces, and as many good as paint could be, it will strip anyways, that's for sure. So giving some extra protection is a good way to protect that many hours of work.

If I applied an extra clear glossy coat the paint it will be much better and much stronger.

    This is fantastic! I have rehabbed many laptops, but never painted them. You've given me a lot of good ideas.
    A little bit of feed back though... painting the trackpad probably isn't wise. You could give up a lot of precision, not to mention the wear.
    More importantly, use a heatgun/hair dryer on those stickers! No need to risk using an exacto knife. A little heat and they will peal off with your fingers and not leave so much residue.

    I have a tips for cleaning the "brown/smoke air" mark of parts, like under the keyboard :
    Use WD 40 and spray on the part you are going to clean, then use a baby wipe, they are a little bit "abbrasive" that's working so well for cleaning that dirt and it doesn't make the object to be cleaned greasy thanks to the wipe.

    You'll get better paint results by using a vinal tape for edge masking. The white masking tape has a tendency to absorb paint and gives you rough looking lines. An alternate to paint would be a patternd vinal wrap or even hydrodip

The quality of the plastic is poor, but the hardware is good and works well despite having had knocks! Too bad they didn't pick better shell materials than hardware like this deserved.
