I've decided to restore the playfield on my 1976 Space Mission game. It has a total of 37,836 plays and 40 years of service. I guess it's about time. Overall it's in good shape, but does have a few problems. The inserts are cupped to the point where the ball will get stuck in them. The black key lines have white circles in them and the paint around the insert labeled "A" has some wear. My plan is to strip everything off the playfield, fix the cupped inserts, paint the key lines and clear the playfield with Spraymax 2K auto clear. My experience level is zero with this sort of thing, but I do have some mechanical experience and I like a good project. I built a Factory Five Cobra a few years ago, but I didn't do the paint. I believe I can handle the Spraymax since it is in a can, but I don't have the equipment for the regular 2pac everyone talks about. I have read most of Vids thread and have found it very informative. I'll share pictures as I go and I'm sure I will have a lot of questions so please chime in. I need the help. Let the fun begin.
This is what it looks like today.
