    I'm with Vid on the use of Novus 2. If you keep your playfield clean and waxed, what good will Novus 2 do you? You're just unnecessarily using abrasives on your playfield - that's a fact, no matter how little abrasiveness you think it has.

    So, you mentioned pure carnuba being harder. Would it be worth seeking out a harder compound that needs to be heated up a bit in order to apply to the playfield?

    Yes, and because your machine isn't exposed to elements like a car, it also means it doesn't need to be "cleaned up" in the same way. As long as you keep your machine regularly maintained, you shouldn't need to use those cleaners, just like you don't get your car repainted after every time it rains.

    Quoted from WilliamsFan:

    Same seminar he 'drank' Novus to show how non-toxic it was...

    Is it necessary to drink my own urine? Of course not, but it's sterile, and I like the taste.
