    Hey Ryan, Chris seems to be MIA at the moment. There is another thread here on pinside with a different take on filling cupped inserts. Search for UV curing resin

    Quoted from Cruzin1a:

    Why not just replace them?

    Good question. In some situations, this is definitely a better solution, but the correct inserts are not always available.

    Many inserts have printing on them, are odd colors, or odd sizes. You can't always just buy the inserts for old EM machines that are ready to pop into the playfield. Many of them just don't exist anymore, and if the right one does, you still have the issue of putting some kind of print label or decal on them and applying a clear over them to protect the art.

    This is why leveling cupped inserts becomes a valid option and many times the ONLY option.
