Very nice!

It's a great fun game.

Did you just use wax on the p/f?

I cleaned the plastics with Novus and the p/f I did with a little W/D 40 on a rag to get the dirt and piles of old wax off and then carnuba wax twice

Play field looks very nice - great shine.

I know they are a PITA, but if you get a chance, rebuild the pops with new 'platters' and mylar play field protectors, it will really set off all the other nice work you did.

Also, I know some would object, but I think this layout is a good candidate for unwinding the pop bumpers to make them stronger. Did that on a Jack in the Box I had and it really made the game much faster and more fun. Great death-defying saves!

Still waiting for the new legs and coin door lock, but pretty much done and playing.
