I've had the two replay threshold scores set to 83K & 99K for around, oh, 25 years. Yeah, I know, I don't like change. I've always played this game a LOT. Just noticed this week, hey, sometimes I'm missing an earned replay. Checked the reel contact boards, the 10,000 is fine but the 1,000 board has very tiny burn pits on the 3000 and 9000 positions (naturally!) I could switch the board with one from player 4 or just use two different '1000' score levels but I'd rather fix it than move the problem or avoid it. I could probably get away with tweaking the moving contacts by bending them to move the contact points a tad left or right since the contact pads are huge but meh I dunno about that.
Any tips like maybe some new products out there that have been successful with repairing this like conductive epoxies or thin trace material I can apply/solder that won't cause binding/friction issues? Thanks!

Sounds doable, I'll look around for something very thin. I could fill in the pits first with something so that it's smooth. Thanks!

I did wonder if that could work, I will give that a shot on one hole first since these are very small pits. If doesn't work out then will give the copper tape a try. Thanks!

Worked! For safety I surrounded the spots with tape before filing them flat.
