I got in an Exidy Bandido in pretty much original shape. The sides looked like this, I thought it was wood beginning to show through white paint:

Its not wood though. That's a woodgrain pattern embossed on white vinyl. Its not actual woodgrain telegraphing through the vinyl, it's made that way.

Looks like this after simple green, magic eraser, and hours of digging dirt out of the crevices with a dulled exacto knife:

This has got to be the dumbest product I've ever heard of. Cant see the pattern until it gets filthy. Why did they bother?
