I know this is an upcoming project for Rich, but I am curious how many people are in need of the complete artwork package for a Galaxian Cab and would actually buy it if it were offered. I assume the 'package' would have to also include enough plain white textured vinyl for the roof, back door and back panels. I am cleaning my Galaxian up for my party Saturday, but I'd eventually really like to fully restore it. On mine, the old vinyl will literally just peel off in one sheet. I've already tried a corner, and it came off easier than Fritz's pants in the back room of the Elk's Lodge during Mardi Gras. You want the full Galaxian package? Post here.

I posted this a few years back the thing is for the problem for the white textured vinyl match the orginal dosnt to me seem like a typical adhesive vinyl but more of a glued on application. Which is which it just peels right off and even had tack nails in it in certain places.
I can get a pretty close match or could at the time but youd have to adhere it yourself
the majority of people from what I remember werent to keen on that concept.
On the plus side this stuff is thick and very durable would cover great better than ANY adhesive backed vinyl out there.
I try to dig up the scans and specs I have on this vinyl if theres still ineterst in this art.
as I wouldnt want to go through the effort of screening on a typical thinner smooth adhesive backed vinyl that didnt match for that I can just solvent inkjet.

Can you just use contact cement like installing formica? Use a wooden roller to put it down? That wouldn't be too tough. But if they had a white adhesive-backed vinyl like the textured black vinyl that Happ sells, I'd be fine with that. That shit rocks to install.
 
yep a contact cement would need to be used then rolled on
Ive looked long and hard for a textured adhesve backed vinyl
including the the stuff Happ sells and this was the only option I found.
looking for the pics...
 
I would be willing to buy the whole art package as well.

Could that Happs textured vinyl be used to simulate the original Berzerk sides?

I would be interested in some Galaxian side art. Have you ever considered doing Bosconian side art?
