I don't post much but when I do I have to spit my coffee on my keyboard and monitor. How can this be ?
ebay.com link: PLAYBOY Pinball Machine Playfield Overlay UV PRINTED Clear Inserts
(Topic ID: 276992)
Stay away from these overlays. They are junk. Get a reproduction playfield (like a CPR) if you need one for a Playboy.

I bought some of his garbage as a newbie back 20 years ago and never, ever touched his crap again. But this is next level of complete and utter junk. This is worse then a worn playfield. I can't believe this is tolerated
I will poop on classic arcades arcades every chance I get. Here is my AFM overlay missing art in the inserts. Where is my statue of liberty? I sanded my playfield to prep for this. I emailed the license holder, ebay, paypal, etc. "If you used it you bought it" F- them.

But like I said, it’s just a placeholder so I don’t have an empty cabinet in my arcade room, until cpr does another run on Playfields.
There are 3 options for a worn PF. Touch it up and clear it. Replace with a CPR or NOS which will need cleared. Hardtop if the title is available. I have played games with a overlay which was properly installed and then clearcoated. Played fine but I doubt 5 years from now that there won't be issues. I'd never install one myself.
