Amazing video! This was definitely worth the wait. Again, thank you for taking the time and effort to record and edit these pinball pimped out restoration videos! I'm a big fan of all the details you go through and explaining your thoughts along the way. Even down to touching up the paint! Fantastic progress, I'm already excited for the next episode!!
I just used a good clear furniture lacquer which self levels itself. It gets nice and hard once cured. I could have used 2 part auto clear but since it has a cliffy protector that goes over the entire front anyway and you really don’t even see the area I painted… but I wanted to build the edge up nicely so it was level with the playfield so the protector would stay nice and flat once the ball travel over it hundreds of times. On the backside of the targets, I also added a nice thick strip of clear Mylar over the lacquer to prevent it from ever wearing again. You don't even notice it 😁
Excellent work!
Great episode Jeff.
Great video Jeff! Extremely helpful for first-time restoration pinheads.
Glad it was helpful. Stay tuned Friday at 3 PM when I drop the final EP3! I got plenty more machines coming up after this one!
Can’t wait

Thanks Jeff, spider man , spider man shoots a web from his hand !
Great work. What did you use for the clear over your touch up.
