vb_master Posted August 2, 2004 Share Posted August 2, 2004 How do you get the label off of the Supercharger? I've been using a hairdrier, and the glue hasn't melted. So, how do you get it off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would help you, but your sig is too annoying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vb_master Posted August 3, 2004 Author Share Posted August 3, 2004 The chip came this morning, so I did the hairdrier method and it worked. I opened it up and a carefully did the modifacation. I popped it in and put the switch in the way it was in the diagram. Loaded Boing! (PD), crashed... Turned off, switched switch, and loaded Boing! (PD) and [drumroll please] it worked! Now to drill a hole and put it all back together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted August 4, 2004 Share Posted August 4, 2004 Hm... as long as it takes... as long as you can stand the heat... as long as it doesn't start to burn... I know you were joking, but you have to be careful when using a hair dryer (or heat gun) to remove labels from items like this. You can easily melt the plastic if you leave the hair dryer / heat gun over one spot too long. Also, some labels (such as Atari's multi-layered Silver labels on 2600 and 5200 carts) are notoriously stubborn to remove and cannot be removed easily by heat alone. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
