Hello everyone! I have decided to add a playfield protector to my 1991 Data East Ninja Turtle playfield. This will be the first time I remove much of the playfield plastics, ramps, and other items to prep and clean the playfield. My goal is to remove as few of the items as needed to add the protector. Does anyone have experience adding a protector to this machine? I'm not planning to remove the mylar. Yes, I know this topic is controversial regarding the protector vs. clearcoat vs. mylar removal.... I'm just looking for tips or guidance on what items (flipper bats, ramps, sewer) to remove first, what to pay special attention to and so on. Let's assume I have have default connections to the playfield. I plan on taking pictures of everything as I remove each piece, screw, nut, wire.
As always, I apppreciate your support. I've only had this machine for 9 months.
