Woohoo! Pretty excited. Not here yet, but on the way!
NOS Pinball Magic playfield, clear coated!! Scared as heck to do the swap though.

Looks great. Don't be scared. Just do it...you will enjoy the work and it will be awesome when finished.
Not with my bank account. LOL
What is the best way to store this? i will likely not get to install it right away.

Quoted from SilverUnicorn:hat is the best way to store this? i will likely not get to install it right away.
Don't wrap it in bubble wrap or the little dots will imprint into it over the next few months.
Leave it ventilated, for at least 6 months.
If it starts to warp, screw some unfinished rails on it.

This is correct - see the rails I put on mine?

Who did the clear?
I was done by a gentleman named Andrew in Canfield, Ohio. He is an automotive restoration guy, but has done pinball stuff on the side for a while now from my understanding.
I did not contract him, as this field was done by him before I bought it. I am told he does not advertise due to the fact that he is too busy already. I guess that's a good problem to have.
