How to get paint off without ruining sideart underneath?
I scored a Mortal Kombat II dedicated (still with original serial plate) and I've been putting it back together. The control panel and front graphics were PRISTINE under black vinyl overlays... I just stripped those off with a hair dryer and a scraper. The sides have been sloppily painted black and fortunately it seems one section was painted poorly because the sideart is visible undernearth... I was able to get the paint to flake off and expose it, but it seems like that must have been the touch-up paint when they ran out of the "real paint" because the "real paint" doesn't want to go anywhere. Any suggestions on how I can get this stuff off? I'd love to save the sideart because the exposed part looks great!
My apologies if this has been asked and answered... I struck out trying search terms.
