Quoted from Darcy:Can some one shed light on what we are actually looking at?
The white color that is below the art work layer, is it a primer? Or just the first layer of color?
That grey-black must just be dirt? There is no exposed wood, is there? Or has the bare wood been darkened by the ball(s)?
Tons of bare, dirty wood. Probably a defective playfield plus original balls plus tons of use. Certainly not normal wear, though.
Quoted from Rickwh:I would have expected the wear to be worse as it got closer to the flippers, if it was caused by bad balls. Must be some protective coating on top of the inserts cause they look decent compared to the area above where there are no inserts...
the inserts are colored plastic all the way through. it's not like you can wear an insert down to wood. inserts warp and crack over time due to heat and UV, which is obviously not the issue here.
