Put the pop bumper screws in by hand as far as they’ll go and use a nut and nut driver from under the PF to slowly draw them in if using a hammer isn’t your cup of tea.

Quoted from DropTarget:

Almost time to repopulate?
I plan on waiting a few weeks, maybe a month before repopulating the top of PF. But, do you see any problems with populating the bottom before then?

Make sure you have the rails on or the PF will sag.

Quoted from pinzrfun:

Well, 8 months ago I finally decided to try clearing my Alladins Castle. However, I had to wait for the weather to break this spring before I actually could spray. I had planned on trying some airbrush touchups but maybe on the next game.
Anyways, I made some mistakes, learned a lot, and would definitely do it again. My main reason for clearing was to preserve the game - the sunken inserts were beginning to wear. Before and after pics below. Plays as good as it looks. Thanks everyone for sharing your knowledge.

Incredible!!
