Title: light up sign question
Post by: VMAXMAN on November 25, 2010, 11:31:24 am
I've got a 1968 vendo 154 with the light up sign.
the paint is cracking on it.
How do you go about touching it up or repainting?
is there a special paint thats used so the light will shine through?

Best thing to do is take your original to a sign shop and get them to remake you one, around here they charge anywhere from $30-80 depending on graphics and size.

I agree with Joey. if the machine is a V63,56 cav64,96 and so in I strongly suggest buying from Funtronics but if it is a machine that is not reproduced then I go to a sign shop and have them make one for me. They have translucent vinyl that lights up good. I have found that Joeys price is correct.
