It wasn&#8217;t hard to do.  I got a bunch of surplus doors from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.artsarcadegames.com\">Art Mallet<\/a> in Mechanicsville, NY.  I had a door that came with the Jungle King cabinet that I was going to use, but painting it went FUBAR.  The wrinkle paint was supposed to  wrinkle evenly (it didn&#8217;t).  Instead, it only wrinkled around the edges, indicating that I didn&#8217;t put a heavy enough coat of paint on.  So it looks really funny.<\/p>\n<p>Luckily, there were a few Williams style doors amongst the haul.  I took the one in the best condition, took all the parts off it, scrubbed it really well, and applied a few really light coats of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rustoleum.com\/\">Rust-Oleum<\/a> to brighten things a lot.  I scrubbed all mechanical parts, and lubed moving parts.  Presto!  Nearly like new!  <\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m not sure if I&#8217;m going to keep it with orange coin rejects.  I&#8217;m fond of the red ones, but these look very nice.  We&#8217;ll see.<\/p>\n<p>One thing I might do on a lark is take one of the other doors and cut out holes for a third coin slot.  The mechs are on the back of the door already, all I would have to do is cut.  Be an interesting piece.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I don&#8217;t remember if I posted the coin door I refinished, but&#8230; I only wish I&#8217;d gotten pictures of it before I refinished it.
