    Quoted from NickBuffaloPinball:

    Pic is from my HUO Iron Man that I've had since Jan 2011. Just noticed the chipping yesterday as I was looking for issues. I have no idea how long it's been like that. Really bummed because it take immaculate care of my games.[quoted image]

    It's interesting that the art also came up with it. Even back then. On older games if the CC chipped the art would still be there so you could just dribble in a little lacquer/CC and create a pretty unnoticeable repair.

    Quoted from CrazyLevi:

    Nothing is new.
    15 years ago people were raging about Dimples on RGP.

    Art didn't use to come up with the chip. You know that.

    Still I'm not sure if anybody does the 'ole silkscreen method anymore so maybe it's unavoidable.

    Yeah nobody knew how good they had it with minor dimpling...
