Time for the clearcoat for the lower section of the playfield. Next time I do this type of work, I'll be clearing the entire playfield, not just sections.

Masking off the areas with Frisket cut to size around the areas I don't want to clean. The sections that I've NOT touched up need to have penetrol applied with a rag and left to dry. Here's a picture just prior to clearcoat.





Here's the section after removing the mask. I've also tidied up the inserts. I'll leave it to dry and sand level with 2000 grit wet / dry and polish. The clear adds depth and slightly darkens the paint. Still, it is much better than when I started.





Now I wait and then re assemble.
