Quoted from tyking:Thank you. I recall your RF post about the PF. It actually has me rethinking whether I even want to try to do the clear myself, since this would be my first go. I saw a video online of a guy who put his playfield on his porch and started spraying it with a can of rustoleum something or other, and then sands and sprays a few more times and it looked like it came out great. Seeing that I figured it would be a breeze. But then I saw your post.
And I am definitely seeing this thread as a place where people come in with, for example, a beat up Cow Poke, and then Only a month later, it’s painted, and the clear is drying, and it plays 100%. So then we can hear about the next pin. So for me the “what EM are you working on now?” Never changes. It is always the RF, because it takes me one month to remove the wire ball guides.
lol...i'm with you, it takes me forever too. I usually just want to relax and watch tv after work, so my pin projecting time is the weekend, and if we have other plans, it waits til the next week...rinse and repeat. I have to tell you though, the 2Pac spray clear is great, there are a couple threads on it. I've done 2 now, my first was Alladins Castle. By far the most time consuming thing on mine was leveling the inserts (the whole reason I did it, because they were starting to get beat up). I have one of those plastic playfield protectors on my Old Chicago and didn't want to do that again. Long story short, it's almost impossible to not have a great looking end product. Plays fast too!
My 2nd one was Strikes and Spares which turned out even better -
