To Mylar Playfield or Not?
« on: March 15, 2010, 05:24:34 PM »
So you have the playfield all stripped down and polished,cleaned up,touchups done,

Do you Mylar the whole playfield?

Or just where the touchups were done?

Pros and cons on the Q"s greatly appreciated,

Cheers Guys

For me personally, when I have done touch ups around bumpers etc, a single piece of mylar goes down.  Same goes if its a small square ie ball drop area from wire ramp.

If its touchups in say the middle of a playfield, I will lay an entire sheet down over the whole thing.

If there is polish/wax on the playfield, this will have to be removed as the mylar wont stick to it and give you more grief.

full mylar if youve gone to all the trouble of stripping down the playfield
mylars only cause trouble to machines that are turned on all day   (should be no problem for home use)
