Hello I will share what I did. I had a divet in mine. Also someone else did half ass repair. What i did was remove the old filler that someone used. Clean the area good and wipe down with alcohol. I found it helps the bondo stick to the playfield. I used a bondo glaze purchased at menards. It is rather thin also paint like. Already has harder in it and speads easy. Spread it, let dry, sand, repeat til your happy. I let sit 24 hours between coats. I wasn't in a rush. Once it was flat and was happy with it I installed the decal. But your going to paint it. Even better. I would put maylar down. Jeremy
