Nah - a clean with Shellite and magic eraser, then shellite again with a soft cloth, then polish with Novus 2.

mate, legendary excellent work as usual.

your work and dedication is top notch.

great to see a game that most would throw away/part out, be made better than brand new.

a HUGE well done as usual. just amazed at how great u make machines look. ^^^ ^^^ ^^^

All finished now, got the translite in, playfield fitted and only one switch needed adjusting.  It came together pretty quickly at the end which was great.  Plays nice and fast with no errors. I just need to tidy the wiring up in the cabinet and put it all in flexicoil tube.











I'm fairly happy with it given its original condition!!!

Hmmm..postage $US41.50 from pinball life for a $US15 product. Anyone got a set of these locally? They do seem like the go in avoiding decal wrinkling.

Avoid decal wrinkling by doing up legs finger tight, dropping machine on legs with full weight, then tighten up.
Simple!
If it isn't broke, it isn't pinball.
