I just picked up a used IceBall machine. While the game plays fine it needs a cosmetic makeover. While a target board is available, I just cannot spend the cash for a replacement at this time. I would like to restore the existing target board but I am not sure what it is covered with.
It looks like the surface is covered with a thin plastic film with a thin foam backing. Does anyone have an IceBall machine that can verify this? I do not know if the surface on my machine is an original factory finish or something that a previous owner applied. ICE corp will only tell me that I can purchase a replacement. If my finish is factory original, I was thinking about replacing it with a control panel overlay type of material. I was also considering a thin layer of firm felt underneath the cpo material.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
NR
