Hello,

I recently recieved a neo geo control panel overlay for the 4-slot mvs cabinet. I was wondering if anyone can tell me whether the Overlay is supposed to be on a plexiglass type material or whether it is just a laminate paper? Is it supposed to be thicker than a paper? If anyone has a picture that would help me so much.

Thanks
Matt

It's Supposed to be a Plexiglas/plastic type material..
I assume you bought the paper one off Ebay....

The original Overlay is hard to find..

I can take pics and send them to you of my control panel..

I'm not sure what is to be done with the paper type overlays.
I think they would work out nice if you could get a clear piece of thin plexy/clear plastic cut to match the control panel..Holes etc.

Putting this special made piece of thin clear plexy/clear plastic over the paper overlay..
