I've never done an arcade restoration before, but I'd like to. I have (2) Z-Back cabinets which I bought from someone who stored them outdoors in a dirty humid carport. They are weathered badly and I'd like to restore them.
I think my first task is to remove the red vinyl covering (is it vinyl?). What's the best way of doing this?
After that's done, then how do I rebuild the worn out and chipped edges and corners?
And after I've got all the wood/MDF right, then do I just prime and paint, and put on new T-molding?
The control panel is made of bent sheet metal. Do I just strip off the overlay, sand it down, and put on a new overlay? The plexiglass over the control panel is cracked and split. Does someone sell a replacement or do I just cut one out of a sheet of plexi from Home Depot?
Thanks very much.
