I've done a bunch of work on the electrical and mechanical parts of my Gorgar, but I think I want to clean up a few spots on the playfield. The kickers have some wear next to them, and the Pit has some pretty substantial wear on it that a previous owner covered up with Mylar. There's also Mylar around the base of the three pop bumpers.
At the very least, I know I should remove the Mylar in the pit and Do Some Work to get the wear touched up. I also should Do Some Work to clean up the other wear spots around the kickers and a few other places. Some light Magic Eraser work to get the spiral cracks cleaned out.
BUt my first question is: How do I know if there's some kind of protection on the playfield other than these mylar spots? Am I going to need to do some sanding? Assuming I get the playfield stripped of any over-coating and get all the pain touched up, do I want to seal it with Mylar? TNT amusements seems to do that with a lot (if not all) of their games - so why shouldn't I? If I leave it unprotected, it'll just wear off again, won't it?
I know this is a lot of random, unfocused questions - but I'm not sure where to even start. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
