Looks awesome. You have to be careful on the black and make sure you shine light through. The grey has some amount of light come through it and therefore solid black with the light on it will look bad. Light it up from behind as you do the touch up to get it symetrical. You are doing the right thing. Frontier is one of the best. I would have a tough time getting rid of Viking, Rolling Stones (With power ball), Mystic and Frontier. No question. As this point I will never sell them.

Quoted from Pinballlew:

My new favorite thread....Frontier being my childhood pinball and all . Looking very nice so far. Question why do frontier cabinets have numbers carved into them on the side? Anyone know?

Serial Number

Quoted from Tbgolfen:

Here is a before and after clear. Notice how my brush skills look no better than a third grader. However, after the clear they disappear.

Put light behind it. I am not sure you will be happy. They have to be perfect especially with light behind it. The black has got to be spot on.

Let's be honest, the world needs alien way more than I need frontier cards!

Actually it doesn't. Frontier is a better game.
