FYI: Krylon Paint Update

Archived from groups: rec.games.pinball (More info?)

Do they still make John Deere Yellow? That was a good paint to use on some
early Ballys like Strikes and Spares & Mata Hari but I haven't seen it in
about 7 years.

Where can you get a Krylon catalog from?

I think you're confused with the naming (so am I!) Either product with the
words "triple thick" is okay. However they also have a product called
Krylon Crystal Clear acrylic coating, without the words "triple thick" on
the label. That's the one that we've been told to beware of.

Thanks for the product clarification. Dana

BOTH will work fine as they are the same exact
chemical makeup. I use only the non Triple Thick
variety myself, and have done so for many
years.

ALWAYS test first before using either formula
and you shall have no "new" problems.

(And follow the instructions on the can, too.)

Make sure any Krylon Triple Thick Crystal Clear Glaze you buy is the NEW
can. The old style cans are at least 2 years old by now and shouldn't be
used. The new can looks like this:

Mine is just faded around the coin door (ie, front), plus the edge around
the backglass could stand a good re-doing. What have you found works for
the red?
