Its all good....at least it seems to be 80% intact on the backglass...
Not sure what i should do about it down the track though...
backglass would probably look better with the machine turned on..

As you said. It seems to be relatively intact. So triple thick and glad wrap could possibly get rid of the leopard spots.

Actually in the right light (and with the machine on) It's a bitch to see...

Look real close at the photo - the trailer is nose down so the machine is at an angle - but still at head height.
The bright morning light (for Melbourne anyway!  !@)) makes it look worse because the lights were off as well...

When you get one made - let me know... See below.  !!!

edit: and excuse the faded party zone cab...(In the "leopard" photo I took)

The backglass for my Centaur 2 was also spotted.  Sealed it with a nice thick coat of cabot's clear, it really holds the artwork together great  ^^^

Does Cabot's work okay? Only heard of using Krylon. (That caveman glass in the pic "moults" every time I look at it!)

Yep Cabot's is the go.  It's the same stuff as Markseal, dry's a little yellow so windows need to be masked off prior to application. This is all I use now.

Seems like it all works bar the lights for the top rollover lanes...and not blown globes..the whole row of lights are out...
also the lights inside the pop bumpers....

The Mylar on the playfield is like glass....very thick and smooth...never seen stuff like it before...
