    Impressive touch up! Did you clear over it to protect in the future Very nice!

    Quoted from Ockeyhead:

    I was at work & a coworker informed me that there was a pinball machine up for auction that evening. I immediately went on the website & there it was a Centaur. I called the auction house & placed a bid of $1000. The machine was roached & I acquired the machine for $500. After much work I finally had Centaur up & running. But cosmetically, the playfield was a zero. So I pulled everything off the playfield, including the mylar. Underneath the mylar, someone had colored the playfield black in an attempt to cover up the worn to the wood playfield. I knew & wasn't concerned that once I pulled the mylar, there was going to be many down to the playfield wood areas exposed. But no worry, I work for a school district & I had access to an over-achieving art teacher w/ his masters degree in art. Here's the results...

    Yea I've done quite a few myself with great results.
    This one wasn't about saving the playfield though

    You going to do an overlay on this one? I wasn't aware they had those for Gottlieb games.
