5 Razor blades, a heat lamp, a box of Ding Dongs, and 3 days later...
I discovered something very useful in the removal of paint. Razor Blades. I know, most of you would think, "No shit sherlock..." but I was reluctant to try it. My original plan was to strip and sand the whole thing and make it completely yellow, but I found something even better.
I started with a Pacman converted to an Arkanoid 2 and repainted back into a crude Pac Man. Here is what I have now. The only parts not salvageable was the back and about 4 inches down from the CP. I repainted them black so it didnt look AS tacky. Still looks horrible, but infinitely better than I could have hoped. Maybe I can work up some stencils if someone can explain how. But anyways, its recognizable as a Pac once more.
