Repaired some broken solder joints, sanded out the biggest scuffs and polished most of the scratches out of the screen. Oh yeah, and the paint job.

The board was soaked and needed cleaning, the rca jacks were broken off and the screen had some deep scratches. I was only able to get the scratches about halfway polished out though, cerium isn't quite aggressive enough.
