So okay, you all know the spot on the Genesis where the SEGA logo is supposed to be?

Well... I have a habit of wiping my desktops and surfaces with rubbing alcohol, and this most recent time it caused that logo to rub right off. So now that area is black.

Similar thing happened to my toaster NES--the place where it says "Nintendo Entertainment System" on the slot's door, it now just says "Nintendo Entertain[smeared off letters]"

Now, obviously preventing the damage altogether is impossible without a time machine and I doubt anyone here has one of those (I'd likely be the first), so I was wondering if there was a way to just put replacements on. Like if there's stickers I could buy or some sort of stencil or something.

Suggestions?

Looks like you can just buy replacement nes doors on ebay for like 5-10 each, I would think that would be the easiest option.

You could try image transfer sheets using scans of the logos. There are plenty of how to videos on YouTube. Look up transferring onto plastic.

Man i had found a place that made replacements of this sort of thing and it was put on similarly to a water decal. I can't for the life of me remember what the name was
