Quoted from Nepi23:Hi! Do you wax the playfield protectors also, or just clean them? Thanks!
It’s a similar material to newer car headlights. You can play for a very long time but it will eventually dull a bit. You could polish it up easily when this happens. I have over 1000 games on my Metallica and it’s still fine no issues.
Quoted from Chalkey:People that complain playfield protectors play differently never wax their playfields
its like you get that fresh waxed feeling all the time.
Can you post a photo?
Quoted from jibmums:I recently received two protectors from Germany, one for Pinbot and one for Space Invaders. Just noticed that each one had a little lip all along the edge around the entire protector. Can anyone who has has one of these installed in their non-clearcoated pin long-term, have you noticed the edge digging into your playfield at all? This lip worries me, the protector may prevent all ball-caused wear, but if the lip digs into the playfield over time, that's going to be just as damaging.
