Quoted from Baiter:

Is ghosting the actual term? I can understand ghosting when referring to LEDs (when they are faintly lit with just a tiny bit of current), but the term makes no sense for an air pocket under clear coat. Ghosts have to nothing do with air. It's a little scary to see a pocket of air on a brand new playfield, just as it's scary to drop a game down the stairs, but I wouldn't call that ghosting either. :rant off:

Yes that's pretty much the accepted nomenclature for the whitish haze that develops between the clear and an insert. Milky white haze = ghost.

Quoted from vid1900:

No, same quality as always.
No company on earth has ever made more pinball playfields than CCC, they claim.

One could be left to wonder if stern changed the specs of how they wanted their play fields built. Out of what wood type and clear coating process. Perhaps this is the net result of trying to reduce the $200 cost.

I have yet to run across a mirco or cpr with ghosting. Chipping yes, ghosting no.

Quoted from vid1900:

-

Plenty of "problems" with every brand playfield.
Playfields are like diamonds. Every one has flaws.

But we're only talking about ghosting in this thread. What is mirco and cpr doing differently to avoid ghosting.
