After all was done under hood, it was time to start to freshen up playfield. As you can see, whole playfield is covered by mylar. Great, no wearmarks on playfield anywhere. Bad, it's plastic that is dulled all around making all colours to fade and whole game looks like used. As you know, mylar is extremely hard stuff to operate. I had to test few different things before I found working solution. That was:
- Novus3 (a lot of it) and working. Lots of shoulder grease needed. Open parts of playfield I did go through with this non-linear sanding mahcine with sponge-pad. Actually this method didn't work that well, it only made huge amount of mess all around cabinet.
- best solution was this sponge with white, harder scraping pad on other side. This gave good results with reasonable amount of work
- After this Novus 2 with green scotchpad  (or whatever it's called)
- Novus 2 with sponge
- novus 1 for cleanup.

End result was quite satisfying. It could be better, but now it works as it should. Some photos to follow
