Nice cevans. I'm still in the middle of mine and I'm taking lot's for photos. I'll post some when time permits. I just did touch up on the back glass over the weekend and it turned out great.

Any issues you ran into that you can mention here? I need to contact you and share notes on our PF's. I have another playboy that I can work with (between the two, I want one good one so I'm not too woried if I mess one up).

Quoted from cevans82:

make sure you get some extender

Yep, already figured that out with some of the initial touchup. I've also been doing a lot of testing on scrap wood with color matching and trying different blending / brush stroke methods. I also did some testing with Sharpie and Varathane. I have seen mixed reviews on the use of Sharpie and I think I have determined the acceptable way to use (if needed). I will use paint rather than Sharpie when possible (most of the time).

Quoted from cevans82:

i went on the CPR website and printed off pics of the repro PF they did

Great minds think alike. That's exactly what I did too. They have great detailed photos and it makes it easy to really see what needs what. I was also thinking of doing some clear transparency if needed like Ed Chueng did on his F-14 (http://www.edcheung.com/album/album09/pinball/f14.htm). I've done similar type stuff for drop target repro. Worked out great.
