If you can get it across the pond....Testers Yellow is a perfect match.
Blues and reds I had to blend.

Tim did the playfield around last night. Boy of boy, it is amazing!! Unless you saw it in the flesh before it was started, it's hard to appreciate just how good this is looking. Really amazing transformation, I can't wait until he has finished, it is truly a work of art.

We weren't going to mention that...

And very nice work, Tim. Looking forward to the final pictures.

Finally rounding the bend with this one.

Problem areas under the apron needed to be addressed. I prefer to mask and spray the entire section of colour - so as to eliminate any obvious colour mismatches etc.


Blue was matched, and applied as per the following photos...


Applied...


Upper applied...


Mask removed and the colour match was very good  #@# ...


Lower section...


Again...


Next was identifying the red sections...


And getting those finished out too...


Masking removed...


Really looking forward to seeing Nick carry out the playfield swap - and hopefully a game on it too once complete  #*#
