Not sure what they are called,but the round plastic numbers on the play filed on my Little Chief are dropping down and catching the ball,it looks like there is a magnet under the play field! I went through and pushed them back up level but they drop down again!
What is an accepted repair for this problem? I assume they are brittle and shrinking and I doubt super glue will hold them,so I am open to ideas. Thanks Bob.

Bob, you’ll find this thread very helpful: https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/vids-guide-to-ultimate-playfield-restoration/page/3#post-635883

Your inserts could be sunk, as the link above discusses or they could be cupped. Some reading and maybe a photo or two in the above thread will likely get you pointed in the right direction.

Thanks, I'll take a small level out tomorrow and see what they look like,wether they are cupped or sunk.
