Quoted from FLASHBALL:This video explains the process in more detail.
He actually says in a later video that submerging in the liquid stuff is better than the cream to not create splotching.

If anyone in Colorado is interested in it, I have a brand new F-14 Hardtop for sale. $300 picked up in Golden (or we could meet somewhere around the metro area)
Thanks,

Quoted from HydrogenHuman:Anyone know where I can find these spacers for the beacon motor assembly? Mine is completely missing them. I have an old prototype version similar to the picture from Joe's Classic Video Games.

Radium was close with ACE hardware but not the tubing, there are aluminum spacers and standoffs in the trays with all the nuts and bolts. You’ll find them there.
The attract music is getting stuck on on my F-14, instead of just playing the tune for a few seconds it'll continue to play for hours. anyone have that happen? Any thoughts what could be causing it?
Quoted from Charles_Kline:My F-14 is missing the W speaker grills, someone installed bare perf steel. Does anyone have a set of W Speaker grills?

Anyone have any ideas?
It was driving the location crazy and I had to turn off the attract sounds because it was getting stuck on for hours at a time.

Can any give me a hand with this?
Or at least snap a photo of a ruler next to the W on their grill?
Thanks.

Has anyone put spot lights in the left upper playfield area? I've got a dual light spot light on order to try to brighten it up a bit back there.

I ended up putting a spotlight on each side to illuminate the upper flipper area. Turned out pretty good.

Quoted from BenB:Outside edge makes a hardtop for this game. My playfield is need some love and this is the option I am going with.

After doing a hard top on my Black Knight I don't think I will be doing one again. Especially after picking up the F-14 playfield out of Germany. They absolutely worth every cent.

Quoted from Charles_Kline:Who carries the best replacement rotator motor?
anyone?
Quoted from PinballHaven:I don't know what you mean by rotator motor, but I would try to find the part number and check Marco as my first stop. Hope that helps.
The lights on the top are call rotators.
Rotators and Wigwags are what used to be on police cars.

My yagov switch isn't working and I found that the left gate on the loop isn't working either, it checked for broken wires but it seems like everything is intact.
Since its just those two switches it's got to be a broken wire right?
I need to check the upper C target and make sure the wire didn't break there...
