This Taxi is getting it. What’s everyone’s experience with how long it takes from time you order to when you receive it? I started stripping my playfield tonight so it will be ready once it gets here.

Good! I looked up their location and apparently it’s only 3 hours from me. Maybe if I’m lucky I’ll have it by the weekend

What method did you all use to get a “jewel finish” for your inserts? The website says to either clear them or to use 2000 grit paper. I’m not near 2000 yet but a lot of them are already looking pretty good.

I wouldn’t think there would be if the table was tack clothed and cleaned before installing. Anyways I got an update today. I’m expecting my hardtop to arrive tomorrow!

WOW is all I can say. Thanks Outside Edge! This is going to look great!!! Fitment was almost perfect. A little more cleaning and I’ll apply it soon.

Did you try pulling it back up after placing it? Didn’t have anything like that happen to me

I would imagine the goal is probably going to be to do most system 11 games and MAYBE the WPC 89 games. After that the pins were clear coated and have much fewer wear issues.
