While I most certainly have not ready all 167 pages of this glorious thread, I feel I've put in a valiant effort in search of the question I have.

I have a newly acquired Williams Blackout machine with terribly cupped inserts. I feel I have a grasp on filling these inserts based on what I've read here, but my question is this: Can I fill the cupped inserts to level them, and NOT clear the playfield? I in no way feel confident enough to do the level of work that I would need to do in order to feel good about it (at this time anyway), but I really just want to be able to play the game without the balls getting stuck in the inserts when I'm cradling.

If it's not a good idea, I definitely wont try, but I just had to ask.

Thank you!
