Bit more progress on my Addams playfield.

I've invested quite heavily in some new equipment to help with this process.  I never like to go the cheap route with tools..!

Basically its near on impossible to get a perfect glass finish when spraying a clear.  There will always be tiny imperfections.  Although my finish off the gun was pretty good, I have wet sanded the entire playfield back with 1200, followed by 1500 and finally 3000.

The finish is now as flat as its ever going to get, but obviously the clear is now dull.  The next step is the clear coat polishing which will bring it out to a fantastic shine again..
