Im going to be looking at a TH smaug gold tonight. However it has a factory installed pf protector on it. Game has 190 or so plays. But ive never owned a PF protected game. And honestly i kind of hate the idea of it. Its like a clear bra on a car. Never liked those either. I know people have mixed opinions on how it effects the gameplay.

But my question is how hard are they to remove. Would i literally have to send my PF out to have this removed. Probably cost more to remove it then it did originally for it.

But im honestly thinking of not wanting this machine because it has that.

Love to hear your guys experiences.

Easy to remove. Way easier than installing. You can carefully cut it in certain places and just pull it out and throw it away. Look at this way
You will a perfect like new pf under that. No dimples nothing.

I would think a scissors would do the trick. It literally just sits on the playfield (no adhesive or anything) so you'd only have to cut in the spots where it wraps around something on the playfield.

Oh i thought it was stuck on. Sounds much easier. TY
