The man I have used before requires a scan of the original apttern. My cabinet was stripped and repainted white. Can't find any local samples.

Any suggestions?

There are photos on:

Enough to do a tape guesstimate job at least!

If you are good at drafting then use the side photo:

or get an artist friend to digitize/vectorize (sp?) that knowing the
dimensions of the game cabinet - which you have handy.

This is a three color cabinet - if you sand down you might be able to find enough of the original pattern to make stencils for each color. It is labor intensive but I did it on a Heat Wave and it looked way better than the dirty sticky latex that someone had slopped on.
