I read Vids play field restoration guide after having done a play field that was in retrospect a relatively easy restore... so I didn't clear the play field after cleaning it, and proceeded to throw down a few beautiful stencils I had custom cut- sprayed color- peeled up the stencil and almost all the paint under it came with it! DOH!

Live and learn... this was a few years ago... I can only now admit to this. CLEAR COAT BEORE STENCIL.

I pulled all the GI LED from one of my EM and replaced them with incandescent and I think I like it better- but I need another beer to be certain.

In doing so I resurrected one of the kittens God killed when i put the LEDs in.

Win win and a good karma day for me.

Oh and one more.

My 7 yr old daughter and I played a single game of MM at a local arcade. She put up 15,000,000 and played castle multi ball madness for about 2-3 minutes and Merlin never shut up.... "Super jackpot" over and over.

I scored <1 mil on my game.
