I need a pic of a Vendo 63 squaretop done in the classic red and white colors. (My machine is the version with the wood grain coin door). Anyone have a link?
I need a visual aid for the paint guy to use when he gets my machine next week.
He told me to do most of the prep work myself to defer some of the cost where do I start on removing the wood grain vinyl and paint?

Dear Jasmine64,
I use a propane torch to heat it up with and then peel it off.Watch you don't burn yourself.

Is it the same vinyl finish you see on 70's style coffee tables and other furniture ?

I like the bottom grill silver/grey and no Spriteboy.

That does look nicer.. I would never put a spriteboy on any machine.. actually looks nicer with no decals at all.. (apart from coke logo/"have a coke")
I really really want a V63, but nothing comes up in my area and shipping is out of the question due to cost..

you won't need a torch! it's much easier to use Paint stripper, that old vinal will peel right up & almost fall off by itself!. I use a brand called AirCraft paint stripper, follow all of the manufactures instructions,(no short cuts!) works for all old vinal decals too! , but remember, it does strip PAINT too! so I only use it on machines I'm stripping down anyway.

Spoon-feeding Newbies since 2001...  Yeah..220,221 whatever it takes. Remember, all it needs is a shot of Freon! The Vendo V-83 is the '59 Edsel of the coke machine world. ;p Spray painting does NOT restore a compressor 11 is louder than 10... "Hope" is good, but it's not an action plan. |

I like how you kept the white cabinet and have the front red. I haven't seen the bottom gold before. I kept the TGBWC on the side, but did it in the red. It should probably be Have a Coke on the side, but I liked the TGBWC better.
