I always use dishwasher pouder, works great.
Or you can put it all in the dishwasher, but becareful with the heat used in the program.
Just put a bit of pouder in a bucket with some warm water and dump the parts in the bucket.
Comes out clean after using a toothbrush on them.

My wife buys it online -Dominant, there should be a equivalent at the supermarket-best you ask the female gender about advice here  !@#,I just pinched it out of the laundry cupboard and tried it.
I think they have to soak for a long period to clean up, wheris the dishwasher doesnt soak them long enough.

Well even though the plastics are in good nick, some have metal posts attached to the plastics, as they corroded and wont clean up,I decided to repaint them - this is how they came up.
Undercoated and then sprayed with Liquid Chrome

Well, finished Playfield swap tonight - 99% improvement. Only items I used from the old PF were the Flippers,Bumper housing and Caps,Rubbers and bulb sockets.
Apron and shooter repainted and Water slide decals applied.
Plays a lot faster (Strong flippers and Bumpers)
Next step - Repaint the Coin door,Cab and Backbox. Will keep posted.

Tried to keep it original - except for post screws,bumper caps and apron decals.
I like the old Ballys -Parts are a pain to get -lucky this PF came up and now have some spares.

She's looking sweet Millsy.  ^^^
As I've said before, you are a lucky guy. What are the chances of coming across another PF, let alone in that condition .
