Quoted from NPO:

All right, so here's my question:
For the pop bumper mounting screws, I have the screw heads as flush as I can get them with the PF. I have them to the point I cannot get my fingernail underneath a single screw head. Is this enough, or do the heads actually have to recess beyond the top of the PF and into the wood?
Did a combo of pneumatics and hand labor on this job. Without a pneumatic hammer, holy shit. No thanks.
Pictures of the position of my mounting screw heads with respect to the PF and the tools I used to accomplish this job.

When i put the brackets for the pop bumpers on my clear coated playfield, the heads of the screws went flush because as I tightened the nut from the underside it pulled the head down into the clear. Just watch the head as you tighten to see if they start sinking.

Following this thread!

Edit: i commented, then watched the video haha
