Has anyone tried to put together a library of paint/ink codes for various games? (I'm looking into the plausibility of at least touching up my Asteroids and Pole Position II cabinets).

Thanks.

yeah thats what I thought you meant but even if I gave you original Atari Pantone numbers
I dont see where that helps for touch ups.

For example most all of Atari Red is Pantone Warm Red
now considering red is the first color to fade and depending on how someones cab/afrt was stored over the years this no longer matches from cab to cab.

Touch ups can really only be mix and matched to the existing color and cab on hand-IMO

I understand that, but outside of touch-ups, if I want to do all of the red on a cabinet it still would be nice to have the codes available. Especially for game where side art is not available. (Like the Pole Position II I mentioned).

BTW. Art was selling touch up pens for Ms. Pac-man for a while, and I heard of no complaints.

Thanks.
