Looks good in the pics mate.

Also if the playfield is fully covered in thin "mylar" it may well turn out to be plain old contact like I think is on my SMDM . Apparantly it was pretty common for ops to apply contact to a new machine in those days .

There's some info about it from Nino and Homepin towards the back of this thread:

Thanks for the info Scott yeah i read that thread when you got your machine. I think it may be a bit more robust than contact, but i'm only guessing. Got a photo here you can see it around the lane guides before i cleaned it, it's pretty tough stuff but i can't say for sure i don't know. They did a good job though, that's the only place it's come up, and seems to have been forced up by the posts. Someone had the wrong size plastics in too check out the holes. Whatever it is, is it worth waxing over or not?? What about Novus??
