Quoted from JodyG:

He's giving a 9AM presentation at Expo this year...that would be a good time to ask him in person.

Or at a minimum, someone should take a picture of his back.

Quoted from Xenon75:

Ironically the WMS field I am replacing had pooling all along the left side of the boat ramp into the pop bumper nest.

Hmmmm... I'd like to see that as I've never had anything resembling pooling on any of the Williams/Bally games I've owned or worked on over the years, and that's been a lot of them.

Quoted from Jjsmooth:

I mount a star post in hidden area

There's no art under those posts (between the clear coat and wood) in those hidden areas, so there's going to be no pooling. It's the introduction of digitally printed art between the clear coat and the wood, that allows the pooling to happen. This is why Stern removed art from beneath post mounting areas on their digitally printed playfields. I'm puzzled why JJP and Mirco refuses to do so.

Quoted from djsolzs:

Ok so of the 300 how many were Mirco and how many developed issues? You seem to be a good use case at 300 pfs installed.

Greatwichjohn's talking about the playfields he made personally (Greatwichjohn used to make repro playfields). If I remember correctly, Greatwichjohn used Varathane for clear coat and not auto clear. Maybe Greatwichjohn needs to call Mirco and tell him to switch to Varathane for clear coat, lol.

#448 2 years ago
Quoted from greatwichjohn:

No one hears 100% failure rate, maybe 3-5% is a rough guess.

Must be more than that to get JJP to completely remove the playfield coverage from the warranty. RIGHT?

Quoted from TechnicalSteam:

He was there to present a new product. Not answer quality control questions from random folks.
Think they should of had someone managing the questions to keep people from being confrontational.

Nah, people should torch his ass every chance they get.

Quoted from Dan_Halen:

Yes, I should’ve clarified. I was asking about Kruzman, thank you. I’m in the middle of buying a playfield from him and started mildly freaking out trying to find other bad things people were saying and was having a very hard time doing so. Thank you for saying this, really. I started to doubt him and for no real reason at all, he’s been fantastic to deal with this whole time.

Yeah, Kruzman is 100% legit. He's done 2 playfields for me that turned out great, and I've been to his place multiple times. He's a good guy and an asset to our community.

Just curious here, why not just write "crap"?

Quoted from Highclasspinball:

the issues are really low

Low enough to have Jersey Jack change their warranty to not include playfields.

Customers Fault?

Is there any chance you're naming this endeavor "Some Kids In My Brother's Driveway"?

Quoted from pjflyer:

The contract with Stern seems to trump any reason to change

It's JJP, not Stern.

Quoted from Highclasspinball:

there is usually less than 1 board out of 500 shipped ones which has issues out of whatever reason.

Only 1 out of 500 huh? If that was the case, JJP surely wouldn't have had to eliminate their playfield warranties due to pooling/blistering around posts on your playfields, nor would they have to put soft urethane washers under every post on your playfields. So how do you explain JJP eliminating their playfield warranty? Nice gaslighting Mirco, you're great at it.

Quoted from Anony:

HICKORY DICKORY DOCK, THE CLEAR COAT CAN SUCK MY OOOOOOOHHHHHH
And if anyone is at the show Mirco is coming to please get some pics of the Class of 1812 playfield.

And while you're at it, don't forget to get the obligatory pic of Mirco's back.
