Asteroids control panel stencil?

Alignment didn't seem to be a priority for the factory as my colors are definitely off. I don't mind the tedious stencil work if you think it could work and are willing to make a couple of these. I want one to prove out with a test panel ... make sure the slightly rough black finish doesn't make jagged edges, etc.
I also have a spare Asteroids CP that this could be tested on.

OP
so, what are you planning to do prok? As mentioned before, I'm interested in doing a test run if that is helpful.
I'm going to add them to the website tonight, will be one of those things that will take a patient and experienced painter though. I'd highly recommend using an airbrush on this piece.

Here is my original CP with a screened CPO... Must say it does look better than a sticker. Just not sure it looks that much better!
Reviving a stagnant thread.....
I just had my CP sandblasted and was wondering if anyone has used prOk's stencil? I have been going to body shops around town here seeing if anyone can do it at a fair price, and still reproduce the speckled black paint of the original. I'm curious of the paint used for the colors, and if there is a ridge next to each little square or if it's completely flush like the screened original?

I don't think anyone has recreated the original speckled paint. Have you considered one of the new silk screened Asteroids panels their almost ready to reproduce?

Hadn't seen that post. Very interesting, thanks!
I've found a local shop that will replicate the speckled paint job, but we found some rust bubbles under some of them. Can someone confirm that the speckles were original from the factory, or if it was just a case of age on my panel?

Doesn't the texture match what's on the marquee brackets and coin door?
I'm gonna check that tonight.
It does indeed! Thanks.
