Taxi
Williams, 1988I just bought a Taxi & was wondering if the playfield could be touched up or is there some type of decal that could be stuck on the area that has wear (3x & 2x) just above the flippers & between the slingshots. I'm going to try simple green to clean the heavy dirt.... Novus 2... wax. I see 2 of the pop bumper caps are not original... thanks for any help. 
There is a decal sheet available with all the insert logo's available. It also includes the entire blue area, but I don't think it includes the green. You'd have to manually touch that up. I think most people install them then clear/mylar over them.
Quoted from TOK:Found 'em, they're on the way!
Your old taxi is currently being professionally touched up, repainted and cleared! Getting some love
Just curious... I used some Simple Green on the dirty playfield which worked well but I see a spider web type patern in the paint. Can this be removed?
Your playfield looks like it could be cleaned up nicely if you're careful.
I used this stuff and it worked great! You'll be amazed.

I recently used the decals purchased on ebay. The blues in the ink were a lot lighter than the blues on my playfield. Some of the fonts do not match in size. You should remove your factory mylar first and remove the insert decal art before applying. It does look good after its said and done.
Quoted from Blackbeard:Wouldn't treasure cove a bit harsh for a system 11 pf?
Quoted from EdisonArcade:...if you're careful.
Maybe? I'm no expert, and mine had hazy mylar still. Looks great though.
