Restoring
Recover artwork that has been painted over
Many cabinets are refitted with new circuit boards to play different games. Some manufacturers supplied new marquees etc. others used a cabinet with a generic design. In many cases however the circuit boards were replaced and the cabinet was repainted in a generic colour.
To remove the layer of paint make careful use of a heatgun and a scraper. Be aware that sometimes the paint has been soaked in too much that the original layer of artwork is destroyed.
