kiss pf progress
« on: April 15, 2009, 03:21:12 PM »
Well I'm nearing the end of touching up the pf.

This was really worn out and I was nearly going to get an overlay for it, but persisted on.

As you can see the dragons were giving me the shits so after the third time of removing and repainting this is it.

I need to get the ONU done which is missing from the bonus.  (don't know how this will go)

The centre of the playfield was the worst, pastics all reseated, I need to go around the arrows too.

The drop target area had bad wear with the opposite side the same.

clearcoat will be next.

go easy on me, its my first attempt %$%

I'm going with the water based clear gloss - 2 very light coats with probably 5-7 wet coats depending on the look with a fine sanding between except last one.  Finishing with a novus2 then some maguires canuba (pure)

Have finished the machine finally with only a couple of issues remaining.

The upper/lower bumper globes - got the upper working the lower is still out, need to check more wiring and or drivers.

The globes in the K & I in bg (upper ones were not lighting) ended up being a bad 555 ic on the board, replaced all good now.

Very Cool!

You can improve the sound by adjusting the sustain pot on the sound board. Have a fiddle around with it while the game is in sound test mode.
