    I picked up a game with a backglass that was spray painted in places in order to "save" it. This is the second game I've picked up with this issue.

    Is there anything that can be done about it?

    happens all the time. but usually looks better than empty glass in that spot. Only thing you can do is use it as is.

    Quoted from TunaSled:

    Not sure yet. Most of the bulbs were out. Once I unpack it, I'll probably shine a work lamp behind the glass to get an idea.
