Now **that's** Williams quality!

Sometimes you have to turn up the air pressure.

Will the brush spray water?

Did chips of dried paint fall into the cup?

I've sprayed at 50psi with the Harbor Freight little airbrushes and Createx if the paint is the last 1/4 of the bottle and has thickened.

Don't leave them plugged in overnight at that pressure or the Oring might blow, lol.

OP
Quoted from thedefog:
They made them out of like 1/16" thick molds.

More Williams quality.

Can you imagine if Stern or JJP made ramps out of 1/32" plastic? Pinside would explode.

Quoted from Amarillopinball:
For some reason, the staples are what scares me the most, I know its weird, for some reason the fact that some bulbs are just held by staples and what appears to be glue(?)

That is not glue, it's just flux from soldering.

Staples are all that is holding the light sockets in the playfield and pop bumpers.
