Quoted from erak:I put about 1000 game per year so far on my ST pro since oct 2013. And almost 1000 on my
Ironman VE. I clean them about every 100 games. And have changed out the pinballs when they need it. And replace the coil stops every 1000 games. But I have OCD with keeping my games looking new or better.
Super band mini post rubbers, superband flipper rubbers. Cliffy post sleeves.
Cliffy protectors from new.
I looks and plays just like the day I bought it.
In fact I have seen a couple showroom models that look worse.
Novus 1 for plastics and ramps and targets.
Novus 2 for any really dirty spots like between the pops or lanes.
Then just a good wax for the playfield.
But the main rule of thumb, clean it if you think it
Needs it.
And replace the pinballs if they look scratched up.
But if you put the factory Stern balls in it from new. Throw them out ASAP and put good ones in.
Why do you need to replace the balls and with what replacement balls.
