Subject: Saving flaking and peeling sideart cabinet artwork
I wrote a blog post about this, can anyone help me out?  I saw a
number of posts in the pinball forums about this, but I didn't read
anyone reporting back to tell their successes.

I have a Ms. Pac-man that has some areas, not everywhere, just strange
pieces where the cabinet artwork is starting to flake. I wasn't able
to dig up much, I elaborate more above.

Has anyone done this successfully without repainting their cabinet?

I've used triple thick to stop flaking and it seemed to work pretty well too.

It stopped the flaking....but was the shine really shiny?  Or was it
not that noticeable if laid down fairly thin in only a layer or two?

Thanks for the previous "chime in".

it was shiny but since I did the sides and top area (a backbox in my case for
the last game I did it to), it didn't seem to stand out that bad. I wouldn't do
it as a spot repair although I imagine you could dull it a little with some
wet/dry sandpaper (1000 grit) if need be.

I've also used a green scotchbrite pad to dull things a little.
