Is this "fix" more dangerous to do on a playfield that is one year old, and the clear have cured a longer time?
Playfield looks about the same it did out of the box, i thought it was just the posts/washers that had sunken in the clear during populating.
But now i understand that it's just air under the wrinkles, and the print is going to ship with the clear
Quoted from Neal_W:The question is, did heating/pressing make that area tougher by hardening the clear or getting the ink to stick or did it simply smooth it??
If a little heating/pressing helps, perhaps most of the playfield needs to be heated/pressed with a heat gun and press pad?
If this really makes the playfield better, the manufactures could use this method on all new playfields.
Maybe Stern/JJP se this as a cheep fix and start sending machines with "ironed" playfield that fall apart after a year.
They seems to follow all other fix that pinsiders come up with. Bigger post, washers......
I'm out for now with Stern 2015- and all JJP.
