    For what it's worth, here is what I did with mine.

    I have a rather worn playfield on my Bally Bon Voyage. We love playing it. The playfield had been Naphtha'd, Novus 2'd and waxed about 1.5 years ago. I waxed regularly afterwards. I purchased a protector. Before install, I vacuumed the playfield, did some minor touch-ups around inserts then waxed it one last time. Then I installed the protector and waxed the protector. I was happy with the look, the play is good and now I do not have to worry about my playfield disintegrating as we play. My plan is to wax the protector and change the ball as needed.

    Quoted from Xtraball:

    I assume pop bumpers need to be removed?

    Just the cap. Flippers need to come out.

    It took an evening to do mine.

    I was doing a full flipper rebuild too (the night before).

    Quoted from docquest:

    The last few years at Allentown they offered a 10% discount and free pickup at the show. You had to pre-buy it online about a month before the show. Maybe the would do a similar deal at TPF if people expressed an interest?

    I asked, but no response yet.

    Quoted from ralphcousman:

    Best part is piece of mind in knowing I can play all I want guilt free. worst case I’ll just buy another protector if this one wears out, or play on the untouched playfield.

    Exactly!
