: : Can anyone offer any sugestions in covering the woodwork of a controller; to give it that arcade durable finish?
: well, most arcade games are covered in graphics
: or logos with plexi on top of that. For mine,
: I used 3/4" plywood, primed and painted, with
: a sheet of lexan on top of that. I'm very happy
: with it. Be sure to use lexan instead of normal plexiglass or you'll have a hell of a time trying
: to drill/cut it without cracking it.
I used black formica...it shows fingerprints pretty badly though.
