Depends on where the touch ups need to be done. Are they in "high - traffic" areas ?

Can you post some pictures so that some opinions can be posted ?

As a general rule of thumb (personal opinion), once I remove mylar, I never re apply (to the entire playfield). Sometime I will reapply to high traffic wear areas.

Do you just keep a good coat of wax over the PF to protect Nino?

If you zoom in on this pic you can see the random spots, I'm guessing they were from previous mylar removal?

For a machine which is 35 year old and apart from a few areas you are concerned about, the PF looks quite good. From previous experience I would leave the mylar on. Chances are removing it will take further paint off.

+1

That mylar or contact has a really nice shine. It is not lifting. I would leave it intact as removing it presents risks of paint lifting. I would consider using the Treasurecove polishing kit - but a simple clean with Novus 2 and then paste wax will do the trick for this game.

That's a really nice playfield.

Matt, Here's the star/s to scale for targets. I've given you measurements to help line up on the target face. The red outline will be a mylar cut to protect the targets from wear. Will mail asap along with bumper vinyls. Thanks Tim for sending scan.

Thanks Greg, I dont have an account, I was going to get Nino to order one for me, but I forgot initially and added it to his order late. I thought I could get one locally so I wasn't worried about it.

The best I could find was on ebay about $19 delivered http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270553936682&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

Marco's wanted $43.50 postage for one  @.@
