Quoted from RA77:Agree, it appears that some playfields had better surface prep than others. There is no way the ink will adhere properly without the right surface. Also mentioned before over tourqe of posts will aggravate the problem.
@ HEP I love your work and amazing attention to detail. thank you for taking the time to provide your insight and experience with Mirco PF's.
If a JJP GnR owner approached you for your amazing playfield treatment, would it be effective for affected playfields ? As sanding top coat will never get to the wood surface under the art where the problem is apparent. Could your treatment hold it together ?
There is no definitive answer unfortunately. The pictures that have been posted to this thread show at least two separate issues in my eyes(disclaimer).
Some pictures show wrinkling down to the wood.
I would consider this a ground floor adhesion issue if it were my problem and I was trying to solve it.
Other pictures show the topcoat separating from the art.
That is a topcoat issue in my experience . Those are a bit more complex.
Is the topcoat too soft?
Maybe it’s actually hardening too much as it cures then cutting loose at the pressure points?
Is it just not interacting well with the midcoat/art?
Reclearing one of these would likely help at the very least but there is little point in putting a new roof on the house if the foundation is cracked.
I would gladly give advice if ask but I am not at all interested in getting actually involved in this fiasco.
Money isn’t everything.
