At this point you have a playfield with mylar removed.

The next result is a vibrant and colorful playfield with missing art on the inserts and some paint lift

Trying to be as positive as I can - You just need to find pictures, or a scan of a good playfield and then produce your own decals. You can then look at clearcoating the playfield, or laying fresh mylar.

All is not lost !

You could even contact the producers of current decals sets - they may have enough numbers to reproduce a set ?
I agree, all is not lost at this stage. Treasurecove have some really nice pics of a playfield i can use as a reference. Bigdaddy has also told me he has some of a poto restoration he did as well.  All good news.

Where would i get decals made? This could be an option for me.
Cheers,

You could simply print them on a sheet of transparent sticker paper. I found some years ago and I used it to make Target Decals.

I'm sure there is a more "professional" method  %.%
