[@countdavido8977]

I know it shouldn’t be an excuse but the only thing stopping me from jumping on buying more machines and refurbishing then myself is that I don’t have a garage to work in. I live in apartment complex so it’s hard to make moves. Love the videos !

[@GalaxyGames843]

I can understand that!

[@southernstylez904]

Get a storage until bro

[@NellaB_]

I have this exact machine and I'm doing this same thing! Thanks again!

[@GalaxyGames843]

You got it! Glad the video helped!

[@tanishabenton3630]

Hi, what specific materials did you use to sand and smooth the surface before painting?? (Sanding pad type, ect.)

[@GalaxyGames843]

I used a wire brush on a drill and then 220 grit sand paper afterwards

Love the page man. Like your videos.

[@GalaxyGames843]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@Loogieiphone]

I’m just curious how come you didn’t sand off the old paint before putting on the new paint? Will it not stick as good or does it not really matter?

[@SummerHaussner]

How do you find places to allow you to leave your vending machine there? Do you need a biz license the same way you do for a brick and mortar business?

[@GalaxyGames843]

@@SummerHaussner it's definitely a good idea to make sure you have all required licenses, an LLC and insurance. To get locations, you need to go in and speak to an owner or manager

[@downtowngutter3875]

Looks clean is that machine debit card reader compatible?

[@GalaxyGames843]

It is MDB compatible but would need to be upgraded to report cash transactions and inventory

[@HMJKS2000]

@@GalaxyGames843 So if I were to use a credit card reader the company wouldn’t be able to report my cash sales, just my credit card sales? What is the upgrade called to also get cash reporting?

[@Okogg]

Was the machine sanded down already?

[@antoinetteg7257]

Hello, I just bought a machine and would love to do this... being that I live in Chicago and it’s starting to get cold, will the paint dry in 50 degree weather?

[@GalaxyGames843]

I would think 50 would be ok but definitely the warmer the better!

[@Hero-3]

You think it’s more cost effective wrapping it?

[@GalaxyGames843]

Definitely

[@giovannidaprince]

Excellent work sir!

[@GalaxyGames843]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@adalbertotorrero5893]

Like brand new! Which brand is it? Automatic Products?

[@GalaxyGames843]

This one is a USI machine

[@ozzyschannel987]

Hey galaxy, do you know if you can paint a healthy vending machine. It has like fruits and it says healthy snacks I don't know if you have seen those types of machines. I want to paint it cause it's going to a barber Shop and I'm pretty sure he's not going to like it 😅

[@GalaxyGames843]

It's probably a wrap that you can peel off

[@Kay-co2ig]

Hi, how are you? May I ask what model is this vending machine?

[@GalaxyGames843]

This was an old FSI (Now USI / Wittern) 3132 machine

[@kimberlybasaldua]

Hello, Do you know where I can find the Error code identification on the manual ?

[@menda610]

Hi.. Would this spray work on a machine that has the wood finishing? The model is a USI 3013A

[@GalaxyGames843]

I would make sure the wood finish isn't some type of vinyl applied over the metal

[@nicquesyumba5161]

Would this work on a machine with a vinyl finish?

[@GalaxyGames843]

Probably not as well... You'd probably want to remove the vinyl first

[@rg.8590]

How long did it take for this paint job to dry?

[@GalaxyGames843]

I usually let things dry for a minimum of 24 hours, but 48 hours is even better

[@rg.8590]

@@GalaxyGames843 thanks so much! I'm about to try it myself today. There's no rust on my machine. Would I still need to sand it down first or should I be okay just washing it first, drying it then painting? Thanks for you help!

[@GalaxyGames843]

@@rg.8590 you shouldn't need to sand if you don't have any rust spots

[@ozzyschannel987]

Does it leave it smooth or is it rough?

[@GalaxyGames843]

The finish was quite smooth due to spraying it rather then rolling it

[@rayzovending]

What was the total investment to upgrade this one?

[@GalaxyGames843]

Other then the paint job, I didn't do any upgrading to it. So the paint cost me roughly $15

[@bigboyB10000]

More videos like this will be nice

[@GalaxyGames843]

More to come! Arcade machine restores also!

Nice job

Thank you!

[@demetriahenderson8513]

Do they have other colors available?

[@GalaxyGames843]

I'm not sure. They very well may!

[@williamjames7710]

What is the difference in income of a food and non food machine?

[@GalaxyGames843]

Honestly snack machines can make less then the soda machines. Part of the reason is because some items are more expensive then others and typically have a faster expiration time

[@sweetblack8754]

Where can you buy vending machines

[@GalaxyGames843]

Starting out, craigslist and Facebook marketplace is the best place
