Look at vid1900 's playfield restoration guide. He uses a syringe with some superglue to fix ghosted inserts. I would imagine this would be the same process.

By the time you chase the problems you have now you'll only be saving 400 500 bucks & it won't end up looking that great. You can sell the old PF as wall art for 100 bucks too

I'd leave it alone then & just enjoy it. I don't do PF swaps no space or desire. IMO this looks too far gone; touch-ups always look like touch-ups.

I think that question was answered. Vid's guide is spot on, super glue and a hypodermic needle.

This is the glue I have used in the past with good results. I think it is the same vid1900 uses.

I've never used the peel and stick decals on a playfield before, so I'm not sure how they perform. I am assuming you need to strip the wax before applying them. Given the existing surface cracks, you might see some air pockets after you apply mylar.

Lastly, I would recommend making sure those inserts are stabilized by adding some glue to the backs of them (you could even level them if you have a deep C clamp and a hair dryer). With out it, they will continue to have issues.

I have been using 2 part autoclear where I used to use super glue. In my experience, Super glue goes can get messy fast. I always glue my fingers together no matter how hard I try not to. The autoclear will “glue” the art down so long as you clamp it or lay a something heavy on it while it cures. Use just enough clear to get both sides wet. Put some plastic wrap on top so if you have squeeze out you don’t glue the clamp to the playfield. I’ve have good success. Good luck!

I totally get it. Not everyone wants or needs a pin to be collector or showroom quality. I'd be interested to see how it turns out. Good luck!
