Refurbishing some Joysticks and Joypads. This Atari joypad had some corroded contacts and silicone graphite pads. A bit of MG chemicals carbon lacquer and it is as good as new. #retrogaming #atari #atari2600

Two small PCBs with gold plated contacts and three silicone pads with carbon contacts.

The stick has a shrinking tube over one of the pins. I wonder if the others should have some as well?

The plastic stick with its cross of levers that push the switches. One of them has a shrinking tube over it to prolong it or make it larger.
