Love it, I think instead of triple thick I will razor off the peeling section, square it, mask it and paint it like you did. I’m restoring a jungle king and had no idea how to fix the flaking monitor bezel. This taught me a lot. Thank you so much
I have one which is why I was looking up your video: my apartment got flooded and when it was drying out, I noticed it was peeling more then before. I put saran wrap around it for the moment, but I do want to try to repair it, cause it it was flaking before.
@@LyonsArcade my uncle was saying that the saran wrap would make it worse, but the thing is, it's from the first video game I ever played so if your tips can help when I have a proper work area, it's got a lot of personal value.
Brilliant thanks. Always love your videos but now I have some glass that needs this work it's actually helping me too. As regards to the clear coat you use this type is almost impossible to get in the UK what sort of similar things should I look out for, thick pottery glaze style lacquer? I'm used to using nitrocellulose and polyurethane in my work but I'm sure those with their solvents aren't good for the delicate paint. Thanks for all the great videos
Are you thinking paint the wax paper and triple thick it to the glass? Would then have the white backing and protect the paint. It’s a great idea if I read this right
@@LyonsArcade just offering advice from experience. No criticism there! If you're that sensitive maybe you shouldn't be posting videos on the internet!
That was a good trick/tip video. I'd maybe have a spare piece of glass to test paint on vs doing it on the actual glass being restored - then you could just acetone off the test glass and have it for next time. The saran-wrap/triple thick trick was something to file away for future use though - thx.
Someone was saying it works without the wrinkles if you use a thicker sheet of plastic, I might try that, like an overhead projector sheet, I can't remember what those were called...
Extra points... Mmm free shirt or something hehe. nice work btw. Let's say Funhouse a 1990 Williams pinball design by Pat Lawlor & Larry DeMar with voice call outs by Ed Boon. Rudys head usually has 1 eyelid half open which happens when balls bounce off your chin so I've been told! :0 haha. On pins most of the back glass flaking is due to the heat from the bulbs or that's my theory since pins seem to be worse for this.
Definitely right about the heat... it's so close to all those bulbs, and the boards putting off heat behind that too... NOT FUNHOUSE, though... very close however :)

You inspired me to try and fix my pinball backglass on my close encounters. Thanks joe!!
No problem, let us know how it turns out!
I appreciate the tips, I used this to touch up a Dig Dug bezel and it looks as good as new now!
Very cool Computerkid1416 glad it got you straightened out!

Yeah it's a shame when they start flaking, it has something to do with the paint and the glass change size ever so slightly and separate...

I have a 1954 bowling machine that is very delaminated ,i was hoping to reproduce a sticker that i could overlay the entire glass.Is that feasible?
Yes it is. Before you do that though, check out www.BGResto.com see what you think about that....
My original Galaga bezel is doing the same thing. May have to try this trick. Thanks
No problem Lancair, hope it works out for you!
legit ! love the vids of the gameplays but also really like when you have the tutorials so keep it up :D
Thanks Terry!

When mixing and matching paint I saved myself a ton of time with a travel blow dryer..$7 dries the paint in 10 seconds
I wonder if wax paper would do a better job. Great video!
Thanks Ron, yes Wax Paper might do better, it wouldn't be as flimsy.... I might have to give it a try :)
Are you thinking paint the wax paper and triple thick it to the glass? Would then have the white backing and protect the paint. It’s a great idea if I read this right
For sure better than before!
Thanks man!
You should try wax paper instead of plastic wrap. Lays smoother and won't stick.
Thank you for the criticism, anything positive to say?

Good video, that's a neat trick
Thanks man!
Try using parchment paper and a roller. you will get a smoother finish.

Hmmmm thought I heard him yell HEY
It definitely yelled Hey, but it wasn't Rudy :)
Cyclone
Very close... BUT NOT QUITE.
Do i hear Boxcar Willie in the background?? 🧐😉
bob ross had part of his forefinger missing. not sure if that was a happy accident.
haha I never heard about that! What a cool dude
@@LyonsArcade , heck he was even a bartender in anchorage.
clear wrap leaves too many wrinkles makes it look worst
Sounds like a Comet.
There's one hiding back there somewhere :)
