Royal Rumble (WWF)
Data East, 1994My WWF Royal Rumble Pinball machine cabinet could use some touching up.
I was wondering if anyone has a paint code or found a paint that matches?
I know if push comes to shove I could always try to bring a piece of it to the store to do a match, but I thought I should see if someone has matched it already.
lol wish it was that easy but isn't there different shades of black?
Plus the gloss which I think is semi gloss but if someone touched up their WWFRR I would love to know what they used.
Quoted from phillymadison:Actually that's Bill Alphonso when he was still a ref for the WWF

gah isn't he the guy who annoyingly blows a whistle in ECW?
Quoted from epichoff:Any idea who is the guy other than doink on the front of the pin?
Isn't it Mr. Perfect?

Yup Taz's then Sabu and RVD's manager
Was a ref in the WWF first
phillymadison I used rust oleum ultra cover latex gloss black from Walmart and am happy with the results. Although I would like to try adding some floetrol to minimize any brush strokes

Given the game most likely did time in an arcade or somewhere during its life, the black could be faded, so,it's gonna be a custom blend. You may even find that one color won't even work on the entire cab, as one side may be more faded than the other.
Thanks so much. This is actually for the front trimp of the backbox. The border has some scuffs. Should be easy enough to redo the entire thing (rather than touching up the few spots). Considering lighting and angle differences, I'm OK if it doesn't match the sides perfectly (especially since you can't see the side in my home arcade -- nothing special about the artwork there -- so it's not exposed).

What’d you end up using? I think I’ll probably just use black acrylic in water to create a wash and hit the areas where wood has been exposed.
