How to clean the outside of an arcade cabinet with art?

[benjam138]

I'm just wondering what I should use to clean my Pac-Man machine. It's the full size one with the cool art on each side. Of course I don't wanna rub it too hard or with something so the paint will come off. So what should I use? Any help is appreciated! Thanks! -Ben

The question is: what are you trying to remove? Grease? black marks? unidentified green stuff?

 

Unless someone can tell you exactly what to use on a Pac-Man machine, I'd test any cleaning solution out with a dab on an unobtrusive section to make sure the cabinet wouldn't get stained.

Well, it's mostly just black marks and what appears to be dirt. I thought about just trying some soapy water. Any suggestions?

I would try it in stages: 1st try soapy water, then 409 or equivalent, finally Goof Off. But be careful and test the Goof Off in a non visable area first.
