So when you repainted the yellow I guess you just mask around the number area and do no paint around each individual number? That makes sense as I thought you went around each specific digit and painted. That would take FOREVER and almost be impossible to have it look right.
Nice work.

Yes that is how it was done on this playfield.
Trying to cut something like those commas out for instance would just gouge the playfield up too much and if the masking material even stayed put from the cut out it would probably blow right off during the spraying.
On some colors the method can look almost perfect on others like yellow or white that is impossible so I am looking for improvement and acceptable in those cases.
On this playfield specifically it will never look truly perfect in the lettering or numbers because there is an age and swirling in the background of them.
These type of restorations are kind of like plastic surgery.
You have a 40 year old patient that wants to look like they are 20 again but there are limitations.
Haha. Great analogy. Hopefully someday I can get this kind of treatment on my Grand Prix. And possibly my Jungle Queen.
Keep up the good work!
