Thats looking pretty good to me marty.   Another thing you can try to stop the fish eyes is a very fine dry coat first.  Hold the gun back further than normal and apply a few mist coats this means there isnt enough paint to move around the silicon and the second coat should be touching the silicon.    But that looks sweet anyway

Thanks mate...I'm happy having a dip on this playfield and if it turns out good then I may keep it....I don't think I'd have the balls to do it on a good playfield...

I think the theory less is more...I'm not looking for a super thick coat (final that is) but flat is the key.  The 2k and hardner is pretty thin on its own....I've been told for extra shine I can use less thinners too.
