Novus 1 for plastics, Novus 2 for playfield. Cleaning that is.

Any pure carnauba paste wax is what you want. I use blitz.

Pinball life shiny balls

There are mods for protectors around the magnets, but other than that, I haven't heard of other trouble areas for wear on the pro.

If I had the pro, I would get some colored LEDs and add them to the blood bath insert, and the bullseye inserts, and tower insert to help catch your eye better. All the white inserts make it hard for when I want to know if certain stuff is ready.

Enjoy!

I go these. No idea about those eBay ones you found.

Ahh gotcha. Well those eBay ones are the right size. You're probably fine.

Welcome to the world of owning a pinball while living in Canada. You will soon learn to make bulk orders once every 7 months so you don't feel like you are getting completly shafted on shipping. Or make a trip down south for a few hours and go pick up the parts yourself.

Pinbits, Cliffy, Pinball Life, Marco will become yours dear friends / or enemies depending on the way you look at it

Get the balls from pinball life...the stern ones suck unless the person that owned the game before switched them.

Congrats on your first pin.

Man. You sure picked an easy one for your 1st.


Good luck ! You'll need it !

Machine is "drop dead" gorgeous. And also the most brutal ass kicker I've played. Makes Flash Gordon look like tic-tac-toe !

I used pop mylar around the magnets. Id also change out flipper rubber to reduce black dust. Great game only getting better.

Try Translucent or any color Titan Bands.

Visit my posts and mod post for twd helps hope you enjoy and don't forget the voice mod as it is the bestone

Do not use simple green on a new stern. Use novus 1 or 2 to clean the pf with a micro fiber rag. Use one of those micro fiber pads for the wax

I personally wouldn't use simple green on any pin. Don't know about the older ones but simple green is some pretty harsh sh*t. Novus on micro fiber cloth is how I've cleaned all my pins for past 8 years. I only was like once or twice a year.

I'd ask around for more opinions. I personally wouldn't use it. Especially not for home use environment. Game does not get near as dirty as a location pin.

I only use simple green for black ball swirls on the playfield. I use a magic eraser and put simple green on it, then rub gently on the area with ball swirls back and forth. Don't use a ton of elbow grease, it can lift paint off.

Also, go to a hardware store and get a big ass pack of microfiber clothes. Can never have too many. Then when I run through them all, I just wash them and reuse.
