I LOVE the hardtop overlay option. If my Taxi wasn't so borderline, I'd be doing it, but it's one of the few that I've seen that don't have the yellowing on the non-Mylar areas, and my only real wear is around the bumpers so I'd hate to sand down an original PF when it's really not THAT bad to begin with.

That being said, i agree with the others. If you are going to strip down topside to do a full PF decal, why not do the hardtop for an extra $100 or so over a decal? Either way it's going to be the same amount of prep, so you might as well go with the better looking and performing option.

Awesome!!! Are these going to be a limited run? Or is this something i can buy a year or two down the road if i decided i wanna make my taxi look like new?

Quoted from johnnypinball:

Yes, do the Hardtop overlay option. You could not be happier.

Did you clear coat the PF or just sand it down? Do you have any pictures of teh start to finish progress on yoru Taxi?

Quoted from johnnypinball:

Sanded the playfield down with 120 grit then followed with 220. Polished up the inserts with 1500, 2000, then 2500 grit. No clear coat was used. I cleaned up the shooter Lane by sanding out the dirt and then used wipe on poly to seal it. It was rather easy, I just took my time.

Nice! Thanks for sharing!
