I just acquired a Fireball II that needs lots of love. My cabinet, electrical and backglass are all in great shape but the playfield is badly worn.
Is there any source for a replacement PF or an overlay? I would really like to bring this old Bally back to life and looking new again. I am interested in any PF available even with damaged art. As long as it has less wear than mine I would probably be interested and please contact me.
This is mine.

I just want to thank Pinplayer1967 for the rare chance to replace my destroyed PF with one in VG condition. The pin is coming together and just working out some minor lighting issues. I did minor art touch-ups and CC so she will never wear out the art again. Thanks again for the cross-boarder transaction and helping me save a worn out Fireball 2.

I just put the rubbers on the same way it came, but I should look closer at the proper configuration. Yes I did clear coat. it makes a nice smooth surface when done. I built my first rotisserie and found a spot to set up in my shop.

After repeatedly breaking old drop targets and not having good spares on hand, I decided to 3D print my own in two colors. Just installed them and put them through the torture test.

They need some kind of decal and the middle three need more lighting or something, or maybe a different color? Its experimental. I have some other mods in mind but there never seems to be enough time.

Its a great old pin and always a blast to play.

Quoted from jlbintn:

What did you clear coat it with? Did you wax it on, or did you spray?

Sorry for the late reply, I just seen your post, I used regular automotive clear coat that I use on cars.
