    Is it just me, or are there more pinball fanatics or restorers that are not happy with
    The clear inserts on all new reproduction playfields?

    As we know original playfields from the b/w
    Era and other brands used a non-clear prime on there playfields before silkscreening.
    This makes the inserts dim, and better to read. In my opinion nicer, and easier to the eye.

    It would be nice if manufacturers of new playfields would use the same methode
    Like they did in the day.
    Because I think pf’s from CPR
    Are excellend repros, thats why i think its a pitty all those inserts are clear..

    Anyone shares this opinion?

    Give me some toughts on this.
    This topic had never been discussed i think.

    Maybe its an idea to make a poll?
    A vote the measure the people
    Who prefer the clear inserts.
    And the people who would like to see
    The playfields milky coating return
    On the new playfield.

    Maybe encourage cpr and others
    To use this b/w methode again.
