My First Restoration - Galaga!

<< < (13/17) > >>

gothroughthegate:
I blew two amp chips, because of a speaker wire was shorting out.  I ended up replaceing the wire harness from:http://www.arcadeshop.com/galaga/galaga.htm

If you need anything else and don't see it on the web sit just call them they have it.

SirPeale:
I need to do another tutorial.  That one is good for that particular door, but I recently did an over/under door.  The paint is completely different. 

javeryh:
I'd love to see one for a DK coin door...  Will that chemical method work or should I seek out a professional to refinish it?

SirPeale:
I would think it would work.  Depending on how bad it is I might just clean it up and give it a skim coat to 'brighten' things.  If it's REALLY bad I'd see how far sanding/wire wheel got me, and certainly try chem stripper.

Unless I could find someone with a sandblaster that would be willing to do it for cheap.

javeryh:
Thanks.  I'm afraid to do anything to it because they are somewhat rare (at least I don't know of anywhere to buy a new one) and this one isn't dinged or dented at all really.  There is just the typical rust and paint chipping...  I don't want to mess this up!

EDIT: don't want to hijack someone's project thread!   :cheers:
