List of things left to work on:
1. Fuse the -12v line DONE
2. Cleanwax playfieldDONE
3. Install rubber set
4. Install new bulbs
5. Install new shooter springs
6. Inspect/clean drop target assembly
7. Play a game
8.Strip wax touchup playfieldDONE
9. Decide what to do about the insert (fisheyes)
10. Address the back glass flaking issues
This is a touchup, not a full restore on the playfield. I want a pinball to play, not a mint piece of art that I do not want anyone to play
This is a playfield recap.
As I found it:
Glass Removed:
Seal bare wood areas, and white back areas to be touched up.
Finished, letting it dry before I wax. Plastics and hardware will be replaced/cleaned after I get my package hopefully tomarrow or sat.
There is a troublesome area on the lower right.... But the clear has tiny cracks and the dark lines are deep. I would have to strip the clear to paint to get them out, and I am not sure that would do justice to preserving the machine... I feel it takes the history away from it.
