It's been my experience, other than using a heavy mylar available at Home Depot or whatever, that "MelaMine" works well. It'll set you back about $20, however, it has a textured surface, and irons on to your control panel or cabinet side. For what it's worth, my unit looks great. Good Luck!

: I'm definitely planning on having a custom marquee, some sideart, and custom CP Overlays made, but I don't know where to start.

: I would like, at least for the sideart for it to be a material with adhesive backing, like on real side art. On a lot of CP overlays they used a more rugged adhesive material. I would love to get them printed on this, but again, have no idea what type of material it is.

: Do i need to find a special print shop capable of doing this? If so, does anyone know where I can get them done?

: Thanks for your time.
