Description

An original artwork decal set for Flash pinball, these cabinet decals feature perfectly restored side art for the serious pinball enthusiast and flipper collectors in need to restore their game. With colors perfectly matched to the original design the game will now look after restoration like it came from the factory! These are no so called “next generation” decals that are a cheap reproduction with poor quality, our NxtEVO side art will make your Flash pinball look brand new again.

State of the Art NxtEVO2 Print Technology

This technology is a proprietary printing system specifically designed for large format outdoor prints on cast vinyl, intended to withstand harsh conditions. The semi-gloss finish provides a beautiful and subtle look most similar to screen printing.

In order to mimic directly screened cabinets, our decals use a thinner and heat manipulative cast vinyl which can allow minor wood grain to protrude through the vinyl, providing texture and feel to the cabinet, rather than the heavy plastic feel of other pinball cabinet decals on the market. Alternatively, you can prepare your cabinet with filling and sanding to a high degree and the decals will become super smooth like a glass surface.

This tactile property provides levels of quality not previously seen in any other flipper side art product.

Forget the headaches of applying decals with the wet method, although you can, but our flipper side art can easily be applied dry to your Flash and the best finish is achieved with the use of a hot air gun, or high heat setting hair dryer to remove imperfections, smooth the vinyl from any creases or crinkles and also has the added benefit of activating the adhesive much faster to set hard within 24 hours. Otherwise as with other vinyl products a time period of 5-7 days is needed to fully cure.

You will be amazed as any creases or imperfections simply disappear like magic when heat is applied!

“Professional pinball restores the world over choose our decals as their No1 preferred brand!”

As industrial grade materials, the cast vinyl used to make our decals is designed for harsh outdoor conditions such as on aircraft, boats, and large format signage – it is completely resistant to fading from the sun and UV rays. Most other cheap vinyl’s can not stay this strong, even when used indoors. Remember, your pinball will never be outside so rest assured the colors will hold strong.

Creases and crinkles are a thing of the past with the strength of this industrial rated vinyl. Unlike others, it is tear resistant. These decal products are developed directly in Europe for Pinball Decals EU and for flipper pinball owners all over the world. Fans of Flash can restore their game to factory new with a quality that will last!

 

Grey Backed Blockout Vinyl

No More Discolored Side Art

By using a grey backed “blockout” vinyl we provide a solid base color that completely stops color bleed from anything underneath the vinyl surface – so  discoloration of the cabinet wood, stains, or paint from showing through the graphics is no longer a problem.

Many professional restorers have found that discolored or dirty cabinets can have an affect on the finished artwork. Even the color of base paints and also black around the edges can been seen through lower quality cabinet decals.

It’s now easier than ever to restore your flipper pinball cabinet with new side art, thanks to advances in technology and quality materials.

 

 

 

 

Cabinet decals vinyl stored as a rollStoring Your Cabinet Decals for Future Use

If you don’t need to install your new side art straight away, then the correct way to store them is rolled up and kept in the tube. Vinyl material comes new on a roll and this is the best way to keep them rather than storing “flat”.

This particular material features a shelf life guaranteed for 10 years when stored correctly, but when you need to use your new pinball cabinet decals, simply lay them out flat the day before you intend to use them and you will find fitting and installation much easier.

 

 

 

 

Felt edge squeegee vinyl decal applicator tool with microfiber towel

Fitting New Decals Is Easy

You don’t need to be a pro restorer! Correct installation procedure can be accomplished with the use of a felt edge squeegee or a microfiber towel. No advanced tools are necessary, and the messy methods of installing decals “wet” with water are not required for a perfect finish.

Leave newly installed cabinet decals to dry and settle for 7 days before reassembly, or speed up this process and permanently adhere your sideart with the use of a hot air gun. Our vinyl will not burn, and your flipper is safe, so go over them with plenty of heat and the glue will set within only 24 hours!
