Really deep gloss on the cabinet - looks great. After the stencilling, do you clear the finished paintwork ? I'm considering this for some upcoming repaints.
Thanks Nino. It was a real BITCH getting the cab and backbox as good as they are. I used, as i said, White Knight paint for this repaint, think im gonna go back to Dulux paints, it seems to go on much better with less hassles, just finished the KISS cab basecoat today and it turned out real nice using the Dulux paint. I'm seriously considering getting a compressor and spray gun for doing cabs if i do too many more. would make the job MUCH quicker and easier i think.
I know some guys like to clear over the stenciled art but i dont do it, i dont think its necessary. Did any of the pin manufacturers clear over the stenciling?? as far as i'm aware no one did it correct me if i'm wrong.
not to the best of my knowledge, Mitch. I don't think clears were ever added for these vintage machines, or EMs for that matter. But I have noticed restorers in the USA sometimes add a semi gloss clear to protect the paint. The last repaint I completed (Jacks Open) didn't need a clear and looks great four years after the repaint.
Man that has come up great . Awesome stuff.
I bought a Galaxy just to have a bash on, and within a few minutes of playing it I understood why people go on so much about classic Sterns. Classic Stern = AWESOME gameplay. This game is so underrated. I own a Seawitch also but I play Galaxy more. Just too addictive.
Galaxy and Meteor are faster than any Bally of that era (and everyone knows I love Ballys). When they are cleaned and waxed the ball is simply "dangerous".
