Greetings,

I am hoping to join the BSD club.

I'm currently looking at a machine and one of my main concerns is associated with the Mist Lamps/Inserts. From photos I am trying to determine 1) Is this appearance common? 2) Is the black outline of the circles dirt or burn? 3) Are these inserts raised more than "typical" and is that why they are so visible?

Will I be able to use some naphtha to clean the visible black lines around the circles? First photo without the glare appears maybe raised and with black outline. Glare on second photo picking up edges of the inserts...

I'll take any other comments about the aesthetics of the Mist Lamp Inserts. Please help me decide if this condition is a deal breaker.

Thank you,

PhantomP.

Quoted from DK:
It appears pretty raised to be honest, but if it doesn’t affect trajectory and price is right I’d clean and wax it and play the mess out of it

OK. Seller is claiming they are not raised but unless or until I can put my hand on the playfield I am still deciding if this is normal or not. If you happen to be around your BSD want to snap a quick photo of your mist inserts?...

Thank you.

Quoted from Darscot:
Mine has the Sun Process playfield and it looks great but those inserts are slightly darker. I have to admit I never noticed it, yours looks good by comparison. The camera is exaggerating how dark they are. I would check which playfield the one your interested in has. They can plank pretty bad, also check up where the ball lands off the shooter ramp they can be damaged up there as well.

Super helpful photo. Thank you. It is interesting how people notice things differently. I'm mildly less concerned with what I am seeing. Much appreciated.. I am looking for any planking too.

Quoted from ThatOneDude:
Here are mine.

Oh thank you. More to know on the range of condition for those mist inserts. Would you consider your inserts to be raised or just some light wear on the outside edges of a few of them.

Thanks for feedback on the appearance of circular mist inserts.

Can anyone show me a close up photo of their BSD where the the inserts/art are not visibly darker or lighter than the surroundings or do not show a distinct outline around the perimeter of the inserts?

Great feedback I just need to see an example where the insert and surroundings appear more seemless.
