    Hello,

    I have a TAF that I want to restore but I have some questions for the restoration:

    - when buying the front of the cabinet had no decal is it seems that the wood was replaced .. wonder if it's normal? (see attachment)

    I ordered a decal at https://www.pinball.co.uk/game-specific-parts/addams-family-gold/front-cabinet-artwork-addams-family/ but I'm not satisfied (too glossy and the quality makes cheep)

    I found two solutions to rebuild the front
    Stick vinyl and make the decals with the airbrush.
    Or paint the cabinet with enamel paint.
    I found some here http://www.pinballuniverse.com/PinballPaints.htm#
    but they do not deliver internationally, can we find it elsewhere?

    thank you in advance for your help

    (and sorry for my bad english :-/)
