Ice Review would have webbing or "splatter". Could be both.

As long as you use the right paints and your prep work has no cut corners, you can try it yourself. You will need stencils, and Gavin should be able to knock these up for you. In my Jacks Open restoration, I used acetate sheets to allow for the overspray and underspray. This is more of a purist's method and it takes hours of work to do it this way, but it looks great ;

I'm using Gavin's stencils for the Pro football. I'll be doing this cabinet in the next two weeks.

Repainting a cabinet to a high standard is more labor intensive, and the key to success is preparation and patience. NEVER buy cheap paints, sandpaper etc.. That's a recipe for disaster  ^^^
