Quoted from Okarcades:Wax around every 2 weeks. Usually comes out to around 200-300 plays. I use turtle carnauba wax.
And I change balls whenever they look nasty or scratched or pitted. I either use pinball life shiny balls or Marcos. I don't get the cheap balls cause they suck.
Could you expand on your upkeep a little bit? About to put my first on location at a private club. Won't get near as many plays as yours, but I do want to keep it in premium operating condition.
1) Cleaning process - Products you use...Do you remove any hardware? How do you clean the tight areas around pops, ramps, inlane/outlanes? Remove glass and clean both sides? Cleaning BG/Translite? Cleaning cabinet (Smoking allowed?)
2) Waxing process - Similar to above
3) Do you run lamp tests, solenoid tests, etc. each visit? Assume you address any credit dot/test reports.
Thanks in advance!
