Quoted from toddmann:is there a something like checklist of things to look for and adjust in this particular model?
I don’t know if there’s a formal list anywhere, but I’ll borrow a quote from @wolfmarsh: “play the sh!t out of it”
Seriously, here are some things I did (not necessarily in this order, but hindsight is 20/20):
Replaced the stock balls with some from ball baron (cleaning then first of course)
Checked the playfield for defects
Checked the connectors in the upper boards
Booted it up
Ran the various tests via the system menu (switch, lights, etc...)
Turned down the ball ejector strength from 255 to low enough to just get the ball out of the trough into the shooter lane
Check the dr. Strange spinner for level and adjusted it
Played the sh!t out of it
You may want to update the code to .94 but I would play first then update to make sure all mechanicals are good before upgrading.
I’m sure others will have a better list/ideas.
Not an expert on Mylar, but they already have a number of Mylar inserts placed all over. You should be fine to play for a while in any case.

2 more items I thought of later:
1. Look at your Antman and Thor guides and see if there's any pooling. Many of use are using #22 washers to raise the guide off the playfield to avoid digging into it (or damaging it more as in my case)
2. Make sure the playing angle is to your liking. Use the bubble if you must, but I used the "PinGuy" phone app to measure angle up and down, left and right. Think I'm at 6.7 degrees, but I get the feeling it's a personal choice.
