Black Player start buttons
« on: December 15, 2002, 06:04:29 am »
Hi,

Im in the process of designing myself a Mame cabinet and would like to go all black for the buttons. I've seen white player pics on black buttons on someones site (forgot who) and would like to know where I can get these.

Thanks.

That's not a bad idea. You could try these people:

www.industrias-lorenzo.com

Their website gives the impression that they sell the 1/2 player buttons in any colour. I'd be interested to know how you get on.

There's no racial discrimination here... You can use the same buttons as White Players ;)

LOL, that is what hit my mind, too.  I was wondering if he was going to try and charge them more!  ;)  (Just kidding).

I was wondering why there are only white ones, then I looked at the label on the bottom of them, and they are made by some company called TRENTLOTT Co. Hmm.... :D (BFG)

I am also planning a Control Panel with all black buttons. My solution for the Start buttons was to get these and make little One Player, Two Player "Men" to insert into the buttons.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=13718&item=747659295

I haven't received them yet but can't see any reason why they wouldn't work. I'll be using 9 of them actually as I plan to make inserts for Admin functions for the other 7 (ESC, COIN, etc.)

P.S. He has more if this interests you.

One thing to try might be "vinyl dye" It's used for automotive touchups mostly but a lot of people in the PC modding community use it for coloring diskdrives and such.

It applys like a spray paint but it actually dyes the plastic instead of just covering it, and it's supposed to be a lot better especially on power buttons and cd eject buttons that see more wear.

I thought about doing this same thing- all black buttons with lettering on them, but found some lightup atari-style starts instead
