Quoted from punkin:

Absolutely itching to see what you do with these. Just sold my Centaur without giving it a proper chance, plus i'm jonesing to see what you do with noone with expectations on the other end.

I'm also interested in seeing what he does with these Centaurs. I have one the is in need of restoring so I'll be watching this closely.

Looks great. I'm wondering is a slightly darker red would make the silver pop more. Also do you build your cabinets or get them from somewhere else?

Quoted from High_End_Pins:

That’s all I am going to say or show about it.
I don’t have a problem with anyone or what they are doing.
My main concern is I just don’t want to deal with these clears on my own projects and that’s why.
By showing it hopefully it explains why thoroughly.

Thank you for showing this. I find it very interesting since I am looking to restore my Centaur and I happen to obtain one of the Red letter playfields a few years ago. I haven't had any clear added to it however I will need to go back and see if it was already on it at that thickness. Additionally, I would have to agree the the two coats make the playfield look better also. The one playfield you showed that had the clear previously applied was way too thick.

Quick health and fitness update.
First it’s Halibut season.
I landed a big one. Well I bought one

Quoted from High_End_Pins:

Twenty years later. Overnight clearcoat job.
No pooling nor chipping
There is a slight impression from the post.

Would you say the impression is from tightening it to much or not allowing the clear to sufficiently cure first?

I've watched you restore quite a few machines now and This is one of the best I've seen. It seriously makes me want to put in some work and make my SBM to look the same.

Quoted from HooperTriplett:

Pretty sure I've never played Earthshaker, but I'm now obsessed with it since seeing a handful of them come through this thread...

I think he has done enough Earthshakers that he could paint that cabinet in his sleep.
