Bryan Kelly Pinball Coin Door Restoration

[@jamrom5429]

Just came across this ...yes... 10 years later. I got back into restoring Arcade machines and/or MAME'ing them for customers. I always wondered how the heck to get that classic Midway look... well... now I know! Thanks for posting the ancient trick. What good is knowledge if it's not passed on.

Love your Bryan Kelly videos. Question - how do you avoid big droplet drips of the gloss paint?

[@axarothfiefa6676]

People said after this video posted to use a thin metal washer between the little spray nozzle and the can. That way you can't push the tip hard enough to make big splatters. Experiment with different washer thicknesses to find the perfect one!

Some years ago I had a gallon of paint I could spray and get this look. I used it on speakers. I seem to recall it was a lacquer and was black with some clear. May have been a two part product. I can't remember who made it. I bet is was the same sort of product originally put on the coin door. Anybody know what that type of paint is called? I used to see it on a lot of metal electronics enclosures and racks.

Very cool work.

The entire thing was nice, but the last 'bit' was perfect.

Why not strip the paint off with a chemical stripper and some sand paper instead of painting over the paint that's already there. Doesn't that create a higher probability of paint flaking off?

Hey Bryan, nice work bud, both those products are impossible to find now days, 1613 semi flat black & Weslleys bleche wite

Hiya... I know this is 4 years later... lol.. but Wesley's was bought up by Black Magic (or whatever parent company). You can buy it in any Auto Parts place like Pep Boys, AutoZone or online. It's the same formula. I use it for the white lettering on my BF Goodrich tires. Works the same.
