    I am restoring a cool 1968 Williams Comisky Park. Haven't heard of that game? I created it based off of a Ball Park. I have completely disassembled and sanded the cabinet and head to bare wood. Over the years the edges in MANY sections have been damaged. I have two questions:

    1. What is the best wood fill product to recreate the cabinet edges. I already have my artwork designed and ready to be printed on Vinyl. I want the cabinet edges to look minty. I have used various products over the years but never found one that stood out. Opinions are greatly appreciated.

    2. What product is the best to print on? I default to a 3M product, what specific product. My goal is to use a similar product that is currently used by Stern.

    Thanks So much,
    Dave

    I am in Arizona do any of the above mentioned products work better in the heat when applying? It was 95 degrees today. If anyone is interested I uploaded the cabinet artwork. For those non-Chicagoans... On the head The graphics that separates the North Side from the South Side is the Chicago City Flag.
