Hello all,

Funny thing...on my way home from CAX I picked up a Asteroids Deluxe and a Star Trek conversion in an Asteroids Deluxe cabinet so now I have two AD cabinets. The Star Trek works great. The AD is a project. Both are dirty. Without pulling the upper back door off and extracting the AD artwork, is there any way to clean both sides of the mirror in these games.

The dirt on both is so thick you can write your name in it. The Star Trek is not so bad, but there are cobwebs and lots of dust in there as well. There has to be a way to do this without taking the cabinet apart?

I believe the mirror might slide out of the cabinet some way...?

I need to buy a manual for this cabinet (AD manual).

Thanks!
Tom
 
I find it easier to just remove the glass from the back to really clean both sides.
carefully lift the lower edge of the artwork and you'll see two little blocks on the sides if I recall correctly, remove those and you can slide the glass out the back. kinda a pain, but doable. Be sure to not put it back in upside down, otherwise you'll get a double image effect.
