Quoted from BorgDog:Looks nice. Now you need the fist spinner, looks cool when it spins and the two sides blend together. I got one a while back that was NOS from JT amusements gott_lieb

It's probably hidden under that horrible paint. I forgot to remove the paint off this one.
Looked online and most places were sold out
Quoted from DreB:Also for shits and giggles, Hulk now has a red thumbnail. Hahahaahh

I like your style. Great work!
Quoted from DreB:Bought my first pin about 6 months ago not knowing much but it seemed weird for me that my playfield had a house on it, like wtf does a house have to do with Hulk?. I then quickly realized that someone had covered up the playfield. After much scrubbing I found a damaged but WAY better playfield. LIKE WTF?. Lol. I live close to the Quebec border so I'm wondering if it was a language thing as all the lettering was covered. Anyhow, the touch ups will commence soon but what a difference.

I’m suspecting you bought this from David Banner...

Great job man. Turned out really nice! Job well done!!
I also find the red thumbnail pretty hilarious and great too...nice touch 
. I'm also a fan of warm whites, I think it really brings out a lot of the color on the playfield art and also spotlights your work well.
Out of curiosity, what brand of clear coat in the can did you use? Hard to tell in the pictures, but in looking close at the game from your perspective, did the edges of the new clear coat that you put on seem to blend in nicely with the surrounding playfield or were there any obvious variations in levels? Regardless, very nice job on a very fun game. You really turned that thing around!

To be honest, I had never clear coated a playfield before and it left dimples. I didn't do my research. Added another coat and same. I waited for it to fully dry then wet sanded it with fine grit to smooth it out. Then I cleaned it with Novus 2 then waxed. If you get really close you can see small dimples but it doesn't affect the game play. I didn't do the whole playfield, just the areas I had to repaint. Still learning. First restoration. Lol

Not yet. I will now. Tks
Quoted from Dayhuff:Wow, very impressive and a lot of elbow grease I'm sure. Perhaps it would work on this one that was painted by a youth church group?
