Assuming your overlay is "industrial quality" (like what original games used) then I vote no plexi. |

Great product but I hated the smell of it whenever I ran a router down the edges. Ugh. --- End quote --- How funny! My dad says I was nuts and he couldn't smell anything. I've had to work with him/help him with jobs so many times and I HATE the smell off certain colors. Was it a whitish corian? |

Ya ok I think I'm definately going to with Textured, I might go with mamemarquees.com and create one where the basic area is a scattered black on blue background (like a generic Street Fighter cpo) but at the top, there will be a solid blue rectangle with ms. pac-man and galaga art for the joystick/buttons for that game |

Hmm... I didn't even know that texture CP's were an option. I did look at mamemarquees and saw what they had for sale. It certainly appears that you can design your own. I'm not sure I know exactly what it looks for feels like. Is the textured CP material have like a melamine feel to it? Any close up pics of a Textured CP? How thick is the material? Thanks, JD |
