    Quoted from JodyG:

    Maybe JJP should consider undermounting that post through a close fitting hole in the PF. Here is what I am thinking-
    This does not fix the crappy clear issue, but its one of the most beat up posts in a game, and would make long term sense to look into doing something differently. [quoted image]

    These types of ideas are worthy for consideration but they are masking the real underlying problem. This could very well eliminate the pooling problem but switch to a chipping problem. These posts all have some movement when the ball hits it and could very likely start chipping around the post. Manufacturers of the playfields need to fix this problem from it's foundation, not re-invent the way posts are installed and adding washers. If the printing process is the weak link, find a primer, find a different ink, try different types of pigments. If Mirco invested in an expensive printer and it's not compatible with the clearcoat, that's his problem to either find a solution or invest in a better system of printing. If the clearcoat isn't hard enough or curing enough, that is their responsibility to find a solution. If your ceiling is leaking you can keep emptying your bucket but the right way is to fix the roof.
