Paige,

   I know I asked this somewhere else but never saw the replies (KLOV?).

   Atari cabinets aren't covered in silk-screened vinyl.  They are made of laminated wood/particle board and then screened.  Big difference.  In other words, there is not a separate sticker that was applied at the factory.  This is why you will never see NOS atari sideart for games like DigDug, Centipede, Kangaroo, etc. (unless it is meant for a conversion).

   Correct me if I'm wrong.  I see people commonly mention the same thing that you have, but I think they are mistaken.

paigeoliver:
Well, what is the white stuff on the cabinet if it isn't vinyl. It isn't actually paint is it?

philcollins:
Paige, I miss you.

Brogner:
I have a bump n jump in an atari kangaroo cab.  Thinking of trying this with it.  Cant see why anyone would want to cover up this stuff when the cab is is good shape
