Quoted from High_End_Pins:800,1200,1500
If you know you have plenty of clear to work with you could go 800,1000,1200,1500.
I don’t like to go finer than 1500 because it is a good final grit for playfields and creates a surface that looks appropriate once properly polished.
They make grits into the 3000s but they are too fine and a waste for anything a ball is going to be rolling across one day.
Great for show cars with a velvet rope around them though.
I was gonna ask the same question about the HG cabinet that you sanded and re-cleared. What grits do you step up through for that? RandomOrbital sander? How do you know when you are done with each grit? Sorry I know you are an expert at this and I’m obviously a newb. Just curious. Thanks

You do incredible work. High attention to detail. And i like the way you find work arounds for impossible stuff like matching the gradients.
Does anyone ever ask you to do your magic to more modern titles like machines that are from 2000s or 2010s? I was thinking classic sterns like LOTR or TSPP are getting toward the age where they may be rolling through?

Not to derail this awesome thread, but i thought id ask the expert.
Ive got a stern walking dead that im replacing the right side head decal. Its MDF. And wasnt very smooth after removing the decal.
After watching youtube ive given it several coats of min wax sanding sealer and sanded with 180 grit in between.
Do you think ill have issues getting the decal to stick and not peel off/wrinkle?

Quoted from High_End_Pins:My wife wanted me to build some type of removable cover for it but I told her that would be way more trouble just taking it down and setting it back the next year or two.
The clear solution is to get someone that makes clear vacuum molded stuff like pinball toppers to make you a custom dome for the top of the cabinets. 
. Time to pull in some pinball favors. Hahaha
Looks really nice!
