Quoted from fissionch1ps:Question on cleaning. There’s a lot of old wax. I read Vids thread where he recommends the naphtha stuff. Is this safe? I don’t want to lose paint. Any precautions from your experiences?
Naptha is safe for paint in the amounts you'd be talking about for cleaning, and has the bonus of not being absorbed by the wood in the playfield, which means it doesn't cause it to swell or "raise the grain" on older playfields that don't have a watertight layer of clear on them. The trick is that it's basically lamp and lighter fuel; use only with adequate ventilation.
