That's the exact paint I used on a DE Jurassic Part. Great to work with.

On the previous post I said the rain was stating to come into my shed and well now it HAS!! ^.^
the backbox has got 10cm of water damage (i think) on the back and about 1cm on the sides.
I said alot more my my internet explorer stopped responding and now I need to type it up again. I AM NOT HAVING A GOOD DAY! I am quite lucky that the playfield didn't get wet and that I took precautions with the backglass ^.^
I stated this post with me fixing the shed and well The job didn't quite work. I didn't do the extended part of the shed so that leaked terribly!
so the water came from the back of the shed and made its way to the front.
That shows how crap my soil is!
I believe I can sand back the old paint on the backbox like I am with the cab and spray it with spray putty? as long as it doesn't get wet again and I don't leave it too long? am I in trouble?
I am really upset! there shouldn't be anymore rain so it should allow my shed to dry up but what do I do to fix the backbox now!?
the backbox was the best part of the machine at the start now I'm not so sure...
dad... I hope this is a lesson for both of us... DONT PUT A MACHINE IN A ROOM/SHED THAT HASN"T STAYED DRY FOR A YEAR BEFORE!!!!!! !!! !!! !!!

Best thin is to go to Bunnings and buy some sets of trestles, I think you can get four for about $30
Keep everything off the floor.

Nature has her way of spoiling our fun. Don't stress, Mitch - just wait for it to dry and evaluate it then.

I evaluated the water damage on the backbox and its nothing to worry about! #*# #*# #*#
The back of it expanded but it is all still solid!
a small sanding won't hurt it!
I gave it a small sand so you could see where the damage was (the bit without paint of course)
and then I heard there was a storm coming! time to save the pinball... I think I over-reacted but it will save the pin from getting wet @@*
