Hi,

I have a High Speed that is in relatively good shape but the playfield needs work, namely a couple of spots that are worn down to the bare wood. It's going to be a while before I can devote enough time to working on it, so my question is what to do about it in the meantime. I want to be able to play the pin but I don't want to cause any further damage. Would you recommend that I leave the bare spots as they are, or maybe prime them for now? Or apply some kind of coating that I can remove later when I redo the playfield?

Thanks very much.

Hey, thanks for the reply! Yeah, I don't particularly care if the playfield looks a little goofy for now so I thought I would just put some white primer over the bare spots. The mylar idea might be the best way to go though. And thanks for the tip about the new playfields coming. I'll check it out.

Cheers!
