How to protect your control panel on an arcade cabinet

(1/1)

evil_puck:
Hi what is a good solution to protect your control panel from scratches. I see some people use plexiglass (which also seems to get scratches really fast), any other idea?
The plan is have the front of the arcade painted (basically a look in honor of the old pong machines, with wood on the side of the arcade). But I doubt the paint will keep up to long time use.

MartyKong:
You want to have your control panel artwork printed with a polycarbonate lamination on top. This will have a matte finish which will keep fingerprints to a minimum. I used Lucian045 to print my artwork. He can be found in the retail vendors section - does great work.
