Hey man, I wish you nothing but luck on this project. I would be absolutely pissed if I was in your shoes, so I commend you for taking it all in stride. I hope you end up with a beautiful playfield in the end.

Quoted from RavagedUnicorn:

This seems like a fun project for someone that enjoys this type of thing. If nothing else, you'll have a better understanding of your machine and its inner workings for any future maintenance down the road. I realize that this essentially voids the warranty, but if you do end up with clear-coat problems down the road, I should hope that Stern can make an exception in this case. It wouldn't be the first time they made exceptions. If not, I'll certainly have your back in fighting them. And I agree, getting a new playfield from them at this point might just be asking for more of the existing problem.

When I was doing restores, I learned more about pinball repair and maintenance during that time than I have in all the rest of the years I've been in the hobby combined.

Eh, I get rail bounce over on my Meteor just as often as I do on my GBLE.

Yeah, the pop exit down the middle is brutal. It scares me every time the ball goes into the pops. I've never been bothered by the flipper gap though.

Quoted from freddy:

it would be cool if stern made this available as an add on mod for the pro!

Doesn't the right ramp obstruct the placement?

It's going to be a beautiful game. I'm pretty eager to see what that playfield looks like after it gets all repopulated.

Looks beautiful, man. It's my favorite playfield art of all time.
