It is definitely nice. I ordered new plastic set today from Marco at MGC today. I ordered flipper rebuild kits. Couple things I found sling switches were on the wrong side of rubbers. Rubber by drops is on wrong. The left orbit shot could never be made after drop are down because plastic is on wrong.

Quoted from zombywoof:

That clear diverter at the Treasure Chamber appears to be factory correct.

So that clear plastic is on right? It just looked backwards and funny to me. Guess I was wrong.

Inserts are glued in. Light coat of auto clear. Will touch up the playfield after first coat. It only need minimal touch ups. Then I will clear and leave. Colors really pop now.

Inserts are now level. Used a eye dropper to fill insert. Sanded and did 2 more coats of clear. Looks like glass now.

Quoted from Chosen_S:

Yup, I’ve even had one of those screws break while installing the pops back in, thank goodness I had removed them before clear... fingers crossed for you, tighten slowly by hand, don’t use a power driver
Probably wouldn’t be a bad idea to Dremel the clear off and around those screw heads while you have the chance

Thanks I will Dremel the clear away before I put it together.

Quoted from srcdube:

What’s good for buffing out the metal? I never seem to be able to make a big difference.

I clean every thing with a heated ultrasonic clear from harbor fright, then I buff it with green compound and a buffer.
