No idea why, but I just got a Longing feeling for this..

I don't know man.....watching that and listening to his voice gets me all relaxed again. I highly suggest the Eurocade organization team to have a look. 5 minutes of this and all pre RGE stress flows away.....just like so....and make it happen, believe in what you can do.......there.......

Thank you for mentioning the novus products! Just googled it, I got exactly the same problem (cigarette burns) on my walls down (Breakout clone) cab, Definitely worth a try after seeing your amazing results, thought it was doomed!

...you are welcome.
NOVUS is great for plexi. Remember that all 3 are necessary even if I use more often 1 & 2 only

1) I covered entire CP with a transparent film
2) I removed the film in correspondence of black parts
3) I removed most of the rust (depends on the paint you use. I use a paint can be sprayed on the rust)
4) I sprayed with glossy black all CP

Then I removed the painted transparent film over the other colours.

I'm not sure I'm satisfied of the result... if you look closely the panel you can see what I did.
