So I bought a Williams Whirlwind pinball that has been sat up for 10 years.
I've made a few small repairs to the electrics, changed the batteries, etc and all is sound.
I've bought a service kit which includes all new bulbs, rubbers rings, flipper rubbers, post sleeves, etc.
I've the play field completely stripped down to try clean 10 Years worth of warehouse dust from it.
The play field is 100% perfect, just very dirty, black dust caked on.
The Mylar has a few bubbles around the inserts and is a tiny bit peeling between the flippers and I'm looking for advise on removing the Mylar vs keeping it.
Will removing it devalue the machine, as I do intend to sell the machine on at some stage, what are the chances of paint peeling off, what's the best way to remove if I do go ahead(hair dryer, freeze spray).
