I have several questions on your paint;

1) are you spraying a latex based or oil based paint?

2) Brand?

3) custom mix or stock color?

Quoted from Skins:

1. It is a modified polyurethane alkyd enamel.
2. It is a regional paint vendor called McCormick paints. Sherwin Williams has the same paint though.
3. Custom matched to the decals.

Great Thanks for the info!

2 weeks ago... I re-sprayed my head (inside, near translight & speakers/display) and inside cab box with Rustoliem Enamel gloss "Deep Blue". I really like the gloss reflection look, especially inside the cabinet, next to playfield.

Plus, I like enamel, as I believe it more forgiving on scratches and marks from playfield & speaker panel removal.

Your game is looking good... keep up the great work!

WOW... looking really good!

Quoted from mamemaster:

Just out of curiousity, why work so hard painting/sandings sides multiple times only to cover with decals?

I've done many decals (pinball & arcade games). Preparation is key (fill, putty, sand, then prime/paint, repeat and 2-3 times). The slightest dimple, dust and/or any imperfection will show like a pimple, in the center of your forehead.

WOW... very impressive ball guides. What are you polishing them with? They look amazing!

Nice job on the boulder repair.

Suggestion; take a fine tip black sharpie and touch up the scratch in the "i" and (2) scratches above it.
