Picked up my first EM today. It has a temporary home in my living room, until I move in a few weeks.
I’ve just started delving into threads on EM cleaning and repairs. There are so many conflicting ideas, it’s kind of overwhelming. Naphtha vs Novus vs Whatever to clean the PF and can.. WD-40 or not for reels.
Anyone have any recommendations on a good place to start?

I just added Playmates and Fun Park to the EM corner of my collection. One of them must not have the right legs.. probably Fun Park, it sits very low.

Anyone know a pistol Pete? Lol

Quoted from Mopar:

I've flipped Fun Park a couple of times, but not easy to do..
Victor, N.Y. (?).. Years back, have you maybe come to Newark
and traded an EM machine (Captain Fantastic I believe) for a digital?

Wasn’t me. I bought them both locally though. It might still be one that passed through your hands

Quoted from Darcy:

Why does the 'Pistol Pete' scores look like they are in a raised print? Instead of a engraved into the game? Is this a lighting trick. The marking looks like it has been covered with tape, and over painted.

It’s all etched in. It’s much harder to see in person. The part that looks like tape is carved too. Maybe Pistol Pete’s attempt at carving a square?

I’m guessing the head had other high scores written on it, the whole thing was just painted over with yellow.
