Classic Maintenance Guides

Old-school cleaning methods and proper care techniques that stand the test of time.

Protect your modern devices with vintage-inspired care routines.

Turntables, speakers and headphones – keeping the classics alive.

Vintage TV, radio and appliance maintenance the traditional way.

A soft cloth and isopropyl alcohol work better than any fancy cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals that damage vintage finishes.

Dust covers aren’t just for show. Keep devices covered when not in use and store in temperature-controlled environments.

Electronics, especially vintage ones, benefit from regular use. Capacitors and mechanical parts need movement to stay healthy.

Modern laptops need old-fashioned care. These tried-and-true methods have kept computers running for decades.

Use a soft-bristled brush to remove debris. For sticky keys, isopropyl alcohol on a cotton swab works wonders.

Monthly inspection of vents prevents overheating. Compressed air or a gentle vacuuming keeps airflow consistent.

Avoid constant full charging. Like vintage radio batteries, modern ones last longer with moderate use.

Microfiber cloth only – no paper towels. A little distilled water goes a long way for smudge removal.

Traditional tools for modern devices – just like the repair shops used to carry.

Time-tested tools to keep your devices free of dust and debris.

Quality tools that last a lifetime, just like the electronics you’re maintaining.

The old ways are often the best ways. Proper maintenance preserves your investment and keeps technology working as it should.
