Taito Universal Cabinet Gray Color? Color Match Help Needed!
« on: February 27, 2019, 02:20:55 pm »
Has anyone matched the gray for the Taito Universal Cabinet? I am working on a Championship V'Ball cab and I have the "Taito" and "Stripes" but I need to paint the gray.

Any help would be appreciated!

"Arcade Enthusiast" is just "sexy motha" with different letters

I ran a quick search at KLOV.com. I came up empty. You should try over there. Lots of restoration threads. Someone there should be able to help you if nobody here has any ideas.

My 2 cents.... The sides of the old taito cabs are ugly anyway.  It might look better if you just get some game-specific sideart made.

Take any sample to Home Depot, and they will be happy to match it for you.

Play nicely kids, or it's bedtime for both of you.  Don't make me take off my belt.   ;D
Fetch me a beer from the icebox, and I'll tell ya the story of how dirt was invented.

Oh, cool! I just noticed, Spock is giving the bird.

Auto•It 3 fixes everything.
Game loading, lights, sounds,
control mapping, screen rotation...
Compile scripts to EXEs and drop them
into your arcade Frontend.

Careful now. It's posts like these that make people lose their s**t, write a long-winded locked post about how their problems are much greater than anyone else's.

 It is called:

 Vert de Terre Gray
If I had only one wish, it would be for three more wishes.

Thanks everyone. I got a color from Benjamin Moore at Ace Hardware and went with it. Here is the in progress look at my Australian Lowboy V'Ball Cab with the Taito coloring and stripes.......
