Keep in mind that this type of restoration is designed to stay within
the digital realm.
To restore to film would require a 4k transfer which adds a
larger cost to the project making it a less financial worthy
investment for the bean counters.

The
Chaplin at Keystone disk set includes a really nice 10 minute piece called
Inside the Keystone Project that describes why and how films are restored. While it includes modern scenes of people working on digital images of film, it's also full of vintage images used to illustrate the voiceover narration -- including some remarkable images of film disappearing in a burst of flame!

The 2 disk Special Edition of `The Wizard of Oz' also has a documentary on the restoration of Technicolor films.
It's quite ingenious - because there are three negatives (one red, one green, one blue), they are able to compare the negatives to one another, and automatically remove any element that appears on one but not the others.
