    I've used Triple Thick on backglasses with success so I don't see why it wouldn't have the same success rate on the plastics. I know triple thick works fine on plastic as a material, but I have not actually used it on pinball plastics. I don't see any harm in giving it a shot.

    Quoted from ForceFlow:

    Playfield plastics flex, blackglasses don't. I wouldn't recommend triple thick for plastics. It isn't a flexible material after it cures.
    I've used mylar before to protect plastics that had damage from rubbing on parts.
    You might want to scan the plastics before they get worse in case you need to remake them later.

    Good point! Wasn't thinking of the flexing aspect.
