maestro489 Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 I have read what everybody is saying about painting an entire snack machine. But what about touching up a machine that is already on location? Anybody try paint pens or sharpies to cover scratches?

PerformaVending Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 All of my "rough" machines were repainted with Rustoleum "Hammered" finish paint to hide all their various blemishes. It's tough, but when it inevitably gets scratched up, I use a Testors Enamel Paint marker (HERE) to touch them up. You can pick them up at most craft and hobby shops locally too. They come in a bunch of colors, the two I use the most are the gloss black and flat black- depending on how the light catches it on the textured finish. The paint has a bit of an odor, but it dessipates quick, and dries fast, so if you tocuh up a few spots, then service the machine, they'll be long dry by the time you're done servicing. For most machines with a lot of black on them, or even the wood grain, I think a few small, exact "marks" of flat black would be overlooked by customers and the location alike, but that depends on your equipment and the loc in question. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmorris1953 Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 A black magic marker works pretty good also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
