It’s been a little over two months since I started restoring Ice Cold Beer and it’s time to wrap up this restoration and do some final detailing and assembly.

“The Dirty Beer Wench” Puts on Makeup!
Tagged Under : ICB, Ice Cold Beer, restoration
Ice Cold Beer finally got a final cleaning and a couple coats satin black. When you plan to apply vinyl to a cabinet it a very important to put a couple of good coats of paint on your cabinet to give the vinyl something to stick too. Just remember, adhesive on vinyl WILL NOT stick to a flat finish so always use a satin, semi gloss or glossy finish. I prefer to use oil based paint with a satin finish with a foam roller.
Overall Ice Cold Beer was not in too bad of shape and the cabinet was pretty solid. But after restoring more than a few games games I’ve learned that even the easiest restoration takes longer than expected.
