Quoted from Garrett:

he idea of using the UV resin is an attractive approach due lack of sanding if done properly. Has anyone tried using the UV method on an insert that is out of the playfield table?

That's my preferred way of doing it. You would be surprised how little you need. Generally, 2-3 drops at most! Once you do a couple, you will be an expert. Try on a spare trashed one first.
