PLAYFIELD RESTORE CONTINUED;
All of the inserts were checked and reglued as needed. I use PVA woodglue to do this, and seems to hold the inserts in place well, and gives plenty of time to level them before the glue dries. ALL of the star inserts in th 1st pic had to be reglued as the were very loose.
The bonus inserts (2nd pic) were all still firmly in place and level except for one, which was reglued. I retouched the black lines arount the inserts using acrylic paint and a fine brush. I had initially done these in sharpie pen ink, but didnt like the way they looked... Sharpie pen ink has a purpley tinge to it whe viewed at certain angles, and stands out like a 3rd nut on a greyhound! Very little was needed in the way of touchup work on this playfield.. definitely the easiest and quickest playfield touchup work i've ever done!!
Next i measured up and cut out the new mylar. The 3rd pic shows the mylar being test fitted to the playfield, and the last pic shows the mylar being applied, half done. I started fron the apron end, rubbing side to side with one hand to stick the mylar down while pulling the paper backing with the other hand.
