Flash playfields are terrible. So are the inserts. Their designed lifespan was get it out the door.
If your not going to do a full touch up and clearcoat best thing is just wax it up and hope for a hardtop or someone to do a replacement playfield.

Quoted from Matthew2015:

i will get the rest of the inserts cleaned soon , the others don't look as bad but still could be sanded a bit to to look better..
the next thing i am about to do is the the apron which has a lot of wear on it. i am waiting on a decal for it to come and i was wondering if i should sand and repaint the apron with a gloss black before putting on the decal.

Yes. The final product is only as good as the prep work. Sand well and paint with gloss black.
