I just picked up a mint Williams Indiana Jones. Home use only, under 150 plays.

The rings are original and need to be replaced. When I do that, I was considering doing a protective layer on the Playfield.

Also considering a protective film around the flipper buttons

I’ve never had a machine this nice, and I want to protect it, but don’t want to do anything to “devalue” it.

Thoughts on protective film application?

Thx!

Quoted from petebest:

I'd do it where needed. On playfield clean good. Then a good coat of wax. Then mylar. Easier to remove if you want to.

God no. You couldn't play the machine enough to damage it.

You will never see wear in home environment.
