    After removing that fake wood stuff from the side of a cabinet,what do you guys use to get rid of the tackiness thats left over? I've used Goo Gone for small areas but I'm talking a whole side of a older Bally solid state game.

    The artwork underneath was fine and doesn't need to be sanded off, or atleast I hope not. I'm not afraid of using alot of elbow grease but what do I use on it ?

    guys use alcohol and flour on playfields... wonder if you could do something like that?
    maybe in a spray bottle... just a thought

    I think you had the right idea first with the goo be gone. They sell that sfuff in spray bottles.

    I have to disagree, my Bone Busters is a really cool game. You can't beat a talking skull for a topper!
