This coin box goes to my Space Wars, but it was so frickin rusty that I never bothered installing it. Sorry, the only before pic I have is when it was shrunk-wrapped to the top of the cabinet when it was first delivered:

It was so ugly I couldn't bare to take a close-up pic of it.

Well, over the weekend, I took out the sanding blocks and steel wool and started taking rust off. After I had it down to bare metal, it still looked like a corroded, blotchy, orange piece of crap. I decided to grab the Cold Galvanizing Compound and re-surface the whole thing. Turned out beautiful:

Very nice, very nice.

Love the way you seek out the details your game restores. It may take you years, but you get to it. :)
