The outline of the letters you can see right thru to the inside of the backbox. In the attached photo [ https://imgur.com/oXDR3aw ] if you look at the top of the S in mars you can see the printing on the board behind it. Its more noticible/blinding in game when the lights come thru.

Is this just a thing with backglass or is it a quality control issue? Pin was bought NiB a few weeks ago.

Thanks!

Quoted from Mr_Tantrum:

To “fix” this cut a piece of wax paper wide enough to cover the clear part and tape it to the back of the translite. This diffuses the bright bulbs that shine through.
I have a post in the AFMr thread showing the results.

That looks like a perfect fix, thanks for sharing the tip and the photo
