Punch-Out!! restoration (Complete!!) - new bezel!

(1/15) > >>

Spyridon:
Started working on restoring my Punch-Out!!. 

The game is in working condition, but will undergo the following treatment:

Cap both monitors (bad foldover on the top of the bottom monitor)
New side art (none on it currently)
New CPO
Paint or laminate the sides (if I can find the correct formica, I'll go that route otherwise I'll paint)
Remove (or replace) scratches in the bezel
Replace black t-molding with white t-molding
Remove batteries from board

Here is what I started with...



Spyridon:
First step was to work on the control panel.

Before and After


And now the details:

The old overlay pulled off without too much trouble

I used Citristrip to take off the residual adhesive and then sandpaper to remove the rust spots.


After removing the rust spots, I hit it with a coat of metal primer

CPO came from Quarter Arcade


I used a dremel to shine up the carrige bolts and cleaned the buttons with some dish detergent and water



Spyridon:
Next up was to remove the monitors, speakers, marquee, etc to get it ready for painting.  I'm going to check on some options for formica tomorrow, but if I don't find a good option, I'll go with paint.

ChadTower:

Ginsu Victim:
