Hey Vid, thanks for all the info. I have a question. I am debating painting my Dipsy Doodle play field to fix the bare spots, or just give it a good cleaning/ waxing. This will be HUO, and I intend to keep it forever. Thanks for the help!

Quoted from vid1900:That would be an easy one to repaint, then decal back all the text, and clearcoat.
If not, just touch up the paint, wax it, and put Mylar over the top.
Okay, great! Thanks.
I know this is a playfield resto thread, but can anyone help me with a cabinet restoration? I have an artist friend that is going to re-airbrush my Big Game Cabinet. Any tips or links to other threads to help us out? Should I use the same recommended sprayer and paints that have been mentioned here? What kind of clear coat should we use? Should I use clear coat?
thanks!
Quoted from vid1900:Depends on how original you want the game to be as far as clear coat.
You could use a semi-gloss clear to try and make it closer to stock.
Big Game is a really simple graphic, so I'd just Frisket the cab and spray - easy peasy.
Thanks. We will get going on this in the next couple months and I will make sure and start a thread with our progress, cause we are both clueless in the process.
