    I have a glass with significant delamination, peeling and art loss. I was about to do TT and saran wrap to stop the art loss. Are you saying I shouldn't? I don't see this glass as being a restoration candidate without a complete scrape and rescreen.

    BGResto has already done a Mystic so they already have the art. Losing all that mirroring is a tough pill to swallow though. I think I'd rather buy yours off the wall and remove the decal.

    I do not have the missing pieces of art, it's been like this since I've owned it. I don't know how to tell you how dry the art is, but it flakes and breaks pretty easily, so I'm guessing it's dry.

    Any idea where to get the clear film you're referring to? The idea makes sense.

    Thanks for your help. CPR supposedly has it ready to reproduce as well, but they plan to print the center art right onto the glass, meaning I'd lose the 3d effect.
