Quoted from Jjsmooth:Printed on steel, nice touch on a restored machine. I'll include these on every game I do from here on out.
You’re late to the party. AS ALWAYS.
Quoted from Jjsmooth:I use this, available at auto paint stores.

Would you recommend this to touch up on the exterior paint around the head, etc? Thanks.
Quoted from Kerry_Richard:Following... what filler did you use inside cabinet?
Inside cabinet I use this.
You must use primer/sealer on top of this before paint.
Quoted from pinballjah:Would you recommend this to touch up on the exterior paint around the head, etc? Thanks.
No, I would not touch up, because sheen would rarely match. Paint it all or nothing.

Says the guy who just bought his first dremel.
Hah
Quoted from ToucanF16:I always enjoy watching people tackle cabinet work.
It’s awesome. And something I could never duplicate. Jerry’s the best at this too. Amazing watching him do his thing.
Quoted from Jjsmooth:Base color applied. I chose this color based on background of new decals[quoted image][quoted image]
I may behind the curve, but I’m not sure I recognize that cabinet decal set.

Nice. I have seen that one, just not the cool pattern detail. Very impressive work so far. Tommy is such a great pin, it’s worth the effort.
Ive always loved the gameplay. The sound and the cabinet artwork always held it back in my opinion.
We will address both of those issues.
Im going to let the paint outgas for 3 days before applying the decals.

I can see you point re the cabinet, but I actually like the big old lemon. The decals you have are great and there is a set that’s basically Union jacks. All pretty neat.
For sound, I added a pinsound board and a pinwoofer system. Very happy with the combo. I thought the pinsound with their speakers was an improvement, but I thought it knocked it out of the park adding the pinwoofer system. I also added the pinsound shaker.
Thinking of reaching out to that guy that offers the switch out for the high polished ramps. With that, I think I’ll be done.

All those are going in this pin!

Wow, this machine is looking great. A fella would have to sell their firstborn to afford the labor costs...
Great work on the cab, like the way you changed out the base.
My dad was in a band with Roger Daltrey before they became The Who so I’m on the lookout for one of these.
Got to have a decent sound system with it.
Incandescent flashers? Probably smart on this title. Previous owner on mine put some blinding flashers on mine ... I feel like the real 'Pinball Wizard' on some games.

Incandescent flashers are the way to go always.
Comet has some new retro flashers. I haven’t tried them. Don’t see the point to be honest. Incandescent ones literally never burn out.
