A “sort-of-fix” in this video, as I review a fantastic newly manufactured metal faceplate (or escutcheon) kindly sent over by Rich Mellor of http://www.rwapsoftware.co.uk.

These are available from http://www.sellmyretro.com and are highly recommended as the perfect replacement for your battered, scratched or bent metal keyboard fascias on rubber keyed 16k and 48k Sinclair ZX Spectrums!
