    Quoted from TopMoose:

    I wipe down my playfields with a clean cloth weekly but every six months I'll take the playfields apart, clean all the corners and plastic parts, and apply wax to the playfield. I lay down three coats of carnuba wax before re-assembling and then let it rest for a day (which may not be necessary). This is also a good time to change any bulbs or rings and replace the batteries and balls.
    It takes about 6 to 8 hours per machine so I pick a long weekend - Thanksgiving and Memorial Day work well. (That's November and May for our friends outside the US )

    Uh...do you work? And if so, how the hell do you have time to do that AND enjoy your machines?

    Quoted from Blackbeard:

    I generally shop the game when I get it, which obviously includes waxing. Pins only last a year or so in my collection and don't get played a lot. So maybe another wipe down/wax before they leave.

    Good. I'll take your Whitewater.
