This is a good thread, wanted to comment & give a bump. I've owned pins for like 5 years now & I've got paint & ready to try my hand at some simple touch ups. I don't have any A list games or collector quality stuff that would really warrant a proper pro clear coat job. Plus just having the funds for that sort of thing, then the patience to wait long periods of time for that stuff to dry, it all just seems like overkill for a small touch up on a cheap-ish machine.
However, I would still like to do touch ups. Say you are just touching up a solid black area. Hey, even an uprotected touch up is better than none at all, right?
For those that use mylar, is mylar better these days? Or is there a way to apply it to ensure that if you or a future owner wants to take it off that it won't lift factory paint?
I just had a bad experience with removing mylar that was applied mid-life many years ago. Not sure what that owner could of done, if anything, to prevent this paint lifting up years later.
Btw, where can I get good, thin mylar? I think I looked at amazon but didn't turn up anything obvious.
