Quoted from Nepi23:

I have had my MB playfield restored and everything else was more or less ok, but the
restorer forgot to paint the inner rim of the CD in the middle. Apparently the reason
was the difficulty with handling the letters in the inner rim.

The letters are no excuse.

All he had to do was scan the area, print a waterslide decal with the complete black ring, and clear over it.

Every restorer does this a dozen times a day.

Quoted from Nepi23:

Well, I will have to get a paint pen and ask a friend to help. Apparently no clear should be used on top of a paint pen then.

You will not be able to draw a smooth curve with a paint pen. It will look like trash, right in front of your face on the playfield.

As a bonus, the paint pen will chip off quickly without a clear coat over the top to protect it.

The only real fix that's going to last more than a few months (especially in that high traffic area) is to waterslide decal, then reclear the playfield.

If you spot-clear, it will chip off, just like it does when someone tries to spot-clear a car.
