    I have a BoP that's going to be in need of some playfield work. Mylar removal, minor touch up, and a clearcoating.

    I reached out to Ron Kruzman who is booked with other projects and not accepting any work.
    I also reached out to HSA Pinball who said that they aren't accepting any System 11 playfields any longer.

    I did e-mail the fellow in Germany who is gearing up to reproduce the fields, but my first choice would be to keep the original and not worry about international shipping. He's also several months away from being ready.

    I'm open for any suggestions here (beyond trying to remove the mylar and clearcoat it myself)!

    That's ok because BOP is WPC.

    Send me some pictures. I could possibly do it for you. I just finished an f-14 for wolfmarsh and I was going to do dieseldogs getaway at the end of August but he had to postpone. I'm doing spfxteds xenon when I get back from vacation in 2 weeks and then I'm free. I'm not to far either outside of new haven ct

    Whridlsoncestood did a great job on the F-14 he did for me. I can definitely recommend him!

    It may be WPC, but as I understand it, HSA will not accept anything pre-dmd back through system 11A. Pulling mylar on those is a total crapshoot.

    Thanks, I will reach out to Whridlsoncestood.

    I guess one way to look at it is that it's a good sign of the times when people are turning away business because they have so much as opposed to not having enough, right?
