    hi all-if you want factory like results its best to use lacquer,thats what most older machines had on the cabinets.much less time was taken than most people think when they did this.brass stencils used,not much care for over-spray.you can in fact do a fantastic job with spray cans..don't mix brands unless you have to.i made paint color samples by spraying on thin piece of tin masked off so I can match to cabinet color..look close at your cabinet you will see most manufacturers did not put on primer coat.i heavily suggest this is done to seal old paint and new paint needs something to bite into..i was doing this type of thing long before I paint pinball machines.flames on cars..hot nut machines,goofy stuff to learn to paint..i posted just a few photos to show you you can paint cabinets.rifle arcades,or anything else if you take the time to investigate and prepare what paint,color to use...p.s. theses stencils you see on my monster gun were cut out from cereal boxes,perfect thickness.dont be afraid to try and remember this was not painted first time with the time and care you will take.good luckDSC00299.JPGDSC00299.JPGDSC00295.JPGDSC00295.JPGDSC00293.JPGDSC00293.JPGDSC00291.JPGDSC00291.JPG
