hay Claude check this out: http://www.pinballmagic.com/oldsite/overlay.htma very good guide to overlay installation, and to your question...an electric or air sander is best ,once cleared the scratches on the insetrs disapear! NO air pockets or bubles if applied with water and a drop of soap.
yes it is true when you applied the clear scratches will disapear, but also depends, if you use 600, no prob. yes bubbles will disapear, but if the overlay you get also cover your inserts, it leaves some kind of a white cloud of glue, in my case i had to cut every insert, they look much better that way and the clear will be on top of the inserts not the vinyl. |

It looks awesome! The thruster/plastic posts are a great idea too! Make sure you send this thread to Ed Cheung when you're done: http://www.edcheung.com/album/album05/pinball/shuttlepin.htm
well the plastic post idea came from him... i e-mailed him to see if he had an extra repared shuttle, he said yes, $125.00 if you want it...... ask him if he was serious, yes he was. i told him '' i think i can fix mine.......'' there you go! and it looks much better than the one he fixed!!! all i had to do was to kick myself in the butt to do it........ ouch! i will send him a pic when i'm done since the vinyl overlay came from him! to bad i won't see his face when i see the shuttle |
