In Dec/ Jan 2006 Australia  had one of the most humid summers I can ever remember and there was no way I was going to risk spraying this machine in those conditions as I only spray these in my garage and it gets pretty warm in there. So I waited until March to start the stenciling.

 

 

The stencils came with instructions that advised there were square holes at corners of each stencil sheet. You simply had to align the inside corners of the square holes with the outside corners of your pinball cabinet in order for all the stencils to lay in the same / correct places.

 

 

If you do get a set of these stencils for your machine I strongly suggest that you follow the instructions and use the squeegee that is provided as that way you will not get any leaking of paint. I also suggest that you get assistance in sticking them down into the correct spot and another tip is to stick them down with some natural light coming from behind as it makes it easier to see the internal corners of the marker squares lined up with the corners of your cabinet.

 

On my next Backbox page you will see the red paint sprayed onto the stencil and a couple of shots of the results too.
