I'am following this, any updates? What is the exact color of yellow is the cabinet art? That seems to be a tough match. My HS needs this attention so I will follow your steps and process.

Looking great! When you get to the cabinet part, are you just gonna touch it up or do you have a stencil kit or making your own?

Nice work! Very impressive!

Both look great! Red and blue is a nice touch. If you go that route then switch out 2 of the flasher red domes to blue domes, I did this and always get compliments on it as its just not all red flashers. I prefer the original chrome, but thats probably because I got them all shiny from buffing them out with polish.

Have you colored matched the gray highways yet? If so whats your mix? I'am having a hellava time finding a right color match for the gray. It's just not gray by itself. It looks good from players point of view (in front of machine), but if you stand on the sides of cabinet the touch up stands out.

looking good there!

Very nice. Before you painted out the highways did you sand off the old paint or just shot the paint over it? I never heard of frisket, I read where you cut it out but did you tape it down? I see lots of progress here. Keep it up!

Quoted from NinJaBooT:

When you airbrush over the clear it doesn't run?

I'am sure that he is sanding abit to give a some tooth for the paint being airbrushed on.

Looking good there Whridlsoncestood, impressive.
