Apron question
« on: December 11, 2008, 08:43:45 PM »
Hi all,
In the progress of doing a minor restore (New posts,screws,bumper caps,light sockets etc) on my 60,s Bally, but am stuck on what to do to make the apron more presentable. As the picture shows, it looks awful. Unable to locate another apron anywhere, anyone attempted to repaint or transfer an apron? - any suggestions would be appreciated.

However I've had a quick look and I couldn't find one for yours.  You might have to consider scanning it, cleaning up with photoshop and printing?

Gavin has had great success with repainting aprons.. He is a little flat out - Give him time to respond.
