WOW!, that's starting to look the part, well done.
Are you going to do stencils or vinyl wrap?


I'm not really sure yet. I'm leaning towards this from XL Arcade which would cover the entire side and we'd just have to trim it to the cabinet. So a full wrap which has its appeal.
Second, as I've never built a cabinet or even restored one I'm hesitant about using a stencil especially as it would run me nearly $300cdn while the wrap is about $200cdn.
But we don't need to decide just yet so any advice or opinions are welcome.
With all of this work you're putting in I dont see how you could NOT do stencils like it was done originally. Just fyi @mneubey runs arcadestencils.com and he has a practice stencil for only $10. You could use that on a scrap board that's finished like your cab to get a feel for it to see if its something you'd want to pursue.I'm not really sure yet.

Oh, I missed the part about using an LCD. In that case sticker side art is fine. Not sure why I was thinking it was all original electronics.And this is why I'm torn. I want to do a really good job but at the same time I don't know which route I should take as both have pluses and minuses.
I'll check out arcadestencils.com and get the trial stencil. There are a lot of off cuts I can paint the same. Another rattle can is only $13cdn so not a big investment.
I appreciate all the advice and recommendations. And my son and I are trying to make it as close to original as possible save for some weight saving measures like the LCD. Just glad I'm not in a rush or under a deadline.
LOL. Yeah. I've been diagnosed with severe spinal stenosis so need to keep things as light as possible in my life.Oh, I missed the part about using an LCD. In that case sticker side art is fine lol
Stencils all the way. Hell, I think vinyl might be heavier than paint. Or at worst they're the same weight.

Looks nice and clean.
I'm expecting some samples of perforated steel sheet this week as I'm looking to do mine as well.
