I have to say you are an inspiration to me, as I try to duplicate your work on my Doctor Who Pinball. Of course, I could not find the products you used here in America. They must be bad for the environment or something. I have removed half of the decals so far. I am tackling the glue under the decal with a scraper. What a labor intensive mess. I have not removed the electronics, boards or wires (yet). I am trying to do it standing straight up. But see that I will have a problem when I need to apply the stickers. Thanks for all the hints in your videos.

Quoted from MrMikeman:

Separating the head and cabinet isn’t too bad. Just label your connector and take pics. I did mine over Christmas.

MrMikeman, I took your advice and separated the head. Made it a lot easier to work on. Plus I got to learn about the boards, connections (which I labeled), and bundles of wires. Thanks for the link to your resto. My head looks good now and is repainted, restickered, and boards back in and cleaned.
