I joined last Friday..... playmeter at 32000. The playfield is smooth as butter with some serious ball swirls as the previous owner didn't know how to even open up the playfield..... for 15 years. I cleaned it with Simple Green but now need further help. I was told to wipe down with Naptha.... what do you suggest? I want to avoid magic eraser as I don't intend to clearcoat later on. I am new to all of this.
Thanks!

I am fairly new to the hobby with only a Sing Along to my collection and trying to get acquainted with my Atlantis. I cannot get the score reels to reset to zero. When I bought it last week, the owner showed me that you had to hit the start button a second time to get them to reset. Now, they simply keep turning over. I also get continual games! I turned it off and simply drained five balls ..... Keeps kicking them out after 5.
Any help would be appreciated.

Nick Raschilla ( Green Lane,PA) restored mine with a Wade K playfield , Ron Webb backglass, new playfield parts and zero timed the mechs; it’s literally a new machine. What a blast to play! Man, he does great stuff.
Quoted from pocketscience:What does "zero timed the mechs" mean and entail..?
Nick literally restores / remanufactures the component parts of the game to play as if it was new , right out of the box..... like it has “ zero plays” on it. He takes every part , stepper, score motor light socket out of the game and makes them new again. He can repaint a cabinet just as they did 50 years ago using the same paint and methods. His playfield work is also top notch. If you are familiar with the HEP guy who works on modern pins, then he would be the equivalent of Nick with EM’s.
