interior cab paint or not
redketchup:
Ok, maybe a stupid question, but I want to know what you guys doing.
I'm ready to paint my cab and that is the part i hate the most, the idea of having the only visible part painted is growing in me.
What you guys doing, do you paint the interior of your cab or not?
syph007:
It's mostly esthetic I think, but if you are using MDF for sure you'd want to at least prime the inside to seal and protect it.
TopJimmyCooks:
I paint my interiors. Nothing fancy, just one quick coat of gray. I use gray rather than black because it helps visibility. It helps keep dust down and makes it more cleanable if you are blowing air through with a case fan. Most original pinball machines are painted and most arcade cabs are not.
Plus, it just looks like you know what you're doing. I actually like building as much as playing, though. I would never bag on anyone for skipping an unnecessary step to get on with the games.
DirtyDachshunds:
I did. I primed/painted the interior black so it hides the mess inside and laminated the outside, although the back bottom of my cabinet is open (UAII plans)

The guy who did that beautiful job on his F2K is considering *not* painting the inside of a cabinet ?
