How about a few specifics, like what you used to clean the playfield?
 
How about a few specifics, like what you used to clean the playfield?

I started off with Novus #2 then cleaned off the residue with Novus #1. I used Mothers Carnuba Wax recommended by KLOV members. I have reassembled the machine but still needs some love.

Things left to do.
1. Rebuild left and upper right flippers. Coil Tubing, Crank link and spring.
2. Fix some of the bulbs on playing field. One of the bumpers lights don't come on at all even after i replaced the light bulb. Red and Green lights don't come on after replacing them with LED. I think i need to re-solder the bridge on the quick connector since it looks scratched.
3. rebuild kick back - horrible mushrooming on the plastic.
4. Right and Left kickers are weak. Thought after replacing the rubbers it would make them a little stronger but they still seem weak.
5. One big thing is a broken support post on left side. Looks like someone broke the post and metal is still in playing field. Not sure if i want to really mess with this since it would require using dremel on it and that's just scary on its on.
 
Diamond Plate playfields are the best. It seems they always clean up with minimal damage under all that crud. Very nice.
