In between my Eyes and Punchout! projects I have been slowing working on rehabbing a Data East cab I picked up a while back. It's currently playing blind. I have scraped the vinyl off of one side and half off the front, but the other side is giving me problems. I've tried a heated decal scraper, a heat gun, citri-strip, acetone and just a sharp razor. Nothing is working. You can see the tiny area I have uncovered after trying for over an hour. This cab is also very musty and will need a good sanding, cleaning and sealing after all the vinyl is removed. Pics so far:
Does anyone know a good source for the dark gray vinyl Data East used? I checked Suzo/Happ but the only grey vinyl that they have is Sterling Royce Vinyl ('C' in this pic):
Which doesn't even look close. What would be ideal is a grey version of Happ's pica vinyl. But really, any dark grey vinyl would work.
