I just read this whole thread (over the course of 3 days). Nice work, very detailed. I am going to be attempting my first play field repair/touch-up and wonder what the best way to go about it will be. The rest of the play field looks mint, it's just this one spot at the bottom of the playfield. Can I mask everything off and clear just the exposed area before making touch ups? Then clear the whole play field after touch-ups? I also have the HB decal (it doesn't quite cover the damaged area), would I be able to clear over the decal as well? The gouge looks very prominent, but you can barely even feel it with your finger, so it's only thru the ink and not into the wood.
