I’ve avoided this like the plague up till now because of how hard they are to recap but my son loves his old CD-ROMs so I thought I’d give it a go: recapping an iMac G5. What’s better for this: hot air or iron at a high temp? Any caps that are more susceptible than others to try first to reduce the pain? Those boards have alottacaps.
