Should I start with alcohol and M/E, or Novus 2? I don't want to harm the original patina.

Playfield looks a bit rough, sand it lightly, mask off the plastics. Then go to Lowes, get 3 rattle cans of clear and spray away. Let it dry and presto! Art work can be over-rated.

Quoted from pinhead52:

Those 2 Ball guides on the ball return could be buffed up.

It's hard to tell from the picture, but it might need a rubber ring kit.

Just take my Royal Flush parted out PF and plug it in, be done with it. Cost, about what you paid for the project I'm guessing (800-1000 bucks?).
