NEO GEO cab PAINT color???
Stingray:
As far as I know neo-geo.com is just a fan site, and not affiliated with SNK/ Playmore. I'm still suprised he was able to get any useful info out of them. 90% of the members on their forums seem to be there only for the purpose of flaming each other.
Regarding the paint. Gloss, semi-gloss, satin, flat, which would be appropriate? I'm thinking semi-gloss, but it's been so long since I've seen one in the wild I don't remember how shiny the red is.

well the red on a real cab is from the vinyl not paint, so really there is no "true" paint type to be authentic. but the sticker itself is probably semi gloss in appearance
Stingray:
Thanks you for re-stating what Ken said in the second post of this thread. ;)
Can anyone do better than "probably"?

Does any of you have a series I cabinet? If so, I'd love measurements. I've been trying to get them for quite a while. Thanks.

I received this paint formula from the guys at NEO GEO.com. I'm going to take that and a chip from the vinyl to Home Depot and see what they come up with....

Well the kid who was matching paint at Lowes (he looked all of about 14) just looked puzzled when I showed him this, so I picked a chip off the shelf that was pretty close to the color of my marquee and had him mix up some of that for me. The first coat looks pretty good. I'll give it a second coat tonight.
