These are the two coin doors I picked up off eBay.
They were pretty rough but I figured I could make a good one between
the two of them.
First I stripped the paint off the logo plate with some Gook Off.
Then I touched up the nicks with a permanant black marker.
Next I masked off the logo plate and chemically stripped the old pain and did lots of sanding.
Finally I spayed the door with a primer then a semi-flat black paint, polished the chrome,
repainted the coin return buttons, made my own token inserts from
plexi glass and ink jet printer, and installed a new lock. I also modified the coin mechs to accept both
quarters and tokens.
Then installed the new door and frame. I wired the switches to a PC power cable so it could be unpluged from the control
panel cable when I needed to remove the control panel.
And the finishing touch was building and installing a cash box for the coins to drop
into.
Finished! And to complete the whole thing I added some 2005 BYOAC tokens from
arcadetokens.com
