Maybe I missed it in the post, but what do you use in the eye dropper to fill in low spots?

Quoted from Arcane:

To fill up the low spots and inserts, I just purchased a quart of 2 parts automotive clear coat. I hate to waste 2K spray for that purpose.
The clear coat quart can be bought for less than $40 and a quart will last you at least 50 or more playfields.
You also need to get the eye droppers and these are $14 for 100 pieces.

Are you just measuring like in drops--4 drops clear and one drop activator (or whatever the ratios specified)...then putting that in your eye dropper?

Quoted from phillyfan64:

Just an FYI, Bally (and Williams for that matter) had a bad habit of putting some of their leaf switches together with the blades flipped over backwards. In other words, sometimes the little round contacts are not facing each other like they should be. I have no idea why they did this and someone please correct me if there's an actual reason why they did it this way other than they screwed up. They will work backwards, but I either fixed or replaced mine that were backwards. I noticed the blades on your saucer hole are backwards. My saucer hole switch was like that too that's why I happen to notice it. My pop bumpers and sling shots were also backwards. Like I said they will work backwards, but they will probably work more reliably if the contacts are correctly facing each other. It's a little tedious to take the switches apart and flip the blades but it can be done.

Yeah, remember that was back in the 70's pot was all the rage, before employee drug testing, and when assemblers could get high and ignore little details like which way the little contact pointed. Groovy man -- it works either way you put it together.
