Hi, ok i start this project this week. Don't want to restore it completely but for now i want to touch-up playfield and clearcoat it. Playfield is superb, only small touch-up to do and most of them are in black area around inserts. After 30 years they dry, pop out, warp and crack original paint around them. First remove hardware !   |

I am just starting a BK project and my playfield is not even close to the shape that ones in.
You are a very lucky man.

Thanks John, i bought this BK from a MAACA member 5-6 years ago. I played 5-6 games only since that time because i stored it. Now that i have more place, i decide to clearcoated it before playing games because i play a lot to my pins and i don't want to damage this nice playfield. After 30 years paint is weak, cracked and dry and easy to wear !! |

Interresting, you do your final touch ups after a few layers of clear? What's th advantage of doing this? |

It is to protect the playfield from sanding dust after the magic eraser because i sand touch-up to make them flat with the rest of the playfield. They are nice and nearly invisible this way if the color match is good. Also i have lot of sanding to do to repair the cracks around inserts. |

Car clearcoat is not possible for me, too much hardware required, steams are very harmfull. Varathane need only one can and a brush and i have total control of the result. If something is not good like a color matching or strange and bizarre effect i can remove it with alcool and clearcoat again. Not hard like car clearcoat but still hard enough for a pinball table. I made Xenon almost 2 years ago, played more than 1000's game and still it look nice. With experience i make it better each time i use it |
