I just picked up a TAF,it came with a NOS populated playfield.
Never been installed,it has corrosion on the metal parts on the backside.
Will these clean up,or do I need to replate them.

I was going to CC the playfield before I install it.
So everything is coming off anyway.
I took a couple of pieces off to see how much they can be cleaned up.

Thanks,that's what I'm hoping for.
Friend of mine is going to tumble a few parts and see how they turn out.
Also going to use an ultrasonic cleaner on the parts.

Yep,it's the same one.
I tried to buy it then and missed it.
Worked out,I didn't have a TAF for it at the time.
This came with a fully functioning game,and a ton of new parts.

Will do William
Hurry up on MM,and get started on SS lol

Would a bead blaster ruin the metal parts.
I could do that first then tumble them in the cleaner.
I'm just not sure if there is a finish on the parts that might come off.

Thanks guys,I'll stay away from that then

It came with a bunch of new parts as well.
Cabinet decals,legs,complete plastic set and spares.
ColorDMD,target decals,full led kit,TV mod,coin door.
Lit up flipper buttons,speaker panel.

I'm not sure what I'm going to do with the playfield that's in it.
I'm also on the list for CPR TAF playfield.
Might swap everything on that one to.

I might be keeping this one for a while,hard to say now.

I started the tear down yesterday with a few friends.
Thanks Zane,and Trevor

Playfield is stripped ready for CC,and the backbox is mostly stripped on the donor game.
Just waiting on Stretch7 for cabinet testing
I'm going to use one of his new cabinets for this one.
Thanks Gilles.
Might get two and do two TAF's at once.

I hope there won't be any issues,but if there is I have two others to look at.
We took lots of pics to

Yes,for sure I'm clear coating the playfield.
Do it now,perfect for ever

Yep that's the guy,Al or me.
We can take care of it for you.

I got the playfield metal back from zinc coating.
Next batch is all the cabinet metal.

Wespen,is the place here in Calgary

Cost for the first batch was 145.00
Second batch should be about the same.

Looks great compared to before.

I have the playfield back from CC,looks beautiful
It is hard to get a picture of how nice it looks now.
