Title: playfield waxing
Post by: pinball god on April 16, 2017, 09:16:16 PM

I have a brand new pf and a nib game on its way. Is it common practice or advisable to wax these pf's from the word go or only after the first clean?

I don't think there is a right or wrong way. I'd wax them after their first clean. Enjoy the game before cleaning it !

I think I will get slayed for saying this , but , Mills Wax all the way on a newer play field. Been using it from the first pinball I have owned and loooooooove the stuff.
I use it on plastics, flipper rubbers, rubbers and even my balls. Hell I even give my rod a wax now and then.

What do you use on a newly clear-coated playfield?
