It was my first try with my son's little video camera, and my first youtube posting, so Mon, 09 Nov 2009 12:14:35 GMT MrMarco http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/empinbalmachines/message/17801 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/empinbalmachines/message/17801 Hi Todd, Interesting ides, I'll certainly keep that in mind next time. But, it's all back together now. It will be part of the lineup for DPL at my house in Mon, 09 Nov 2009 04:17:59 GMT Todd N http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/empinbalmachines/message/17800 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/empinbalmachines/message/17800 Mr. Marco; What I usually do is mix up some mixall color with clear lacquer and spray with an air brush. If you want to make a road trip with your PF, I can do Mon, 09 Nov 2009 03:49:28 GMT michael hooker http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/empinbalmachines/message/17799 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/empinbalmachines/message/17799 todd, i have the same game, looking for the same info. thanks, mike ...

Then mix up some clear WITH fisheye eliminator, and "drop fill" into the fisheyes. let dry 24 Mon, 09 Nov 2009 02:50:00 GMT Todd N http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/empinbalmachines/message/17797 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/empinbalmachines/message/17797 Getting ready to rubber and I discovered that I didn't have the kit I thought I had. The old rubbers were off a year ago, so I don't have those to ever Mon, 09 Nov 2009 02:31:54 GMT Nuts and Bolts http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/empinbalmachines/message/17796 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/empinbalmachines/message/17796 Ouch! Here is what I would do: 1. Strip every piece of hardware that protrudes above the PF. Unscrew it and remove or drop it through the holes. 2. Get a DA Mon, 09 Nov 2009 01:48:34 GMT cfh http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/empinbalmachines/message/17795 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/empinbalmachines/message/17795 Generally i would strip all the old finish off. but this time i did not. Instead i D/A sanded the entire cabinet. This was key, as a DA sander feathers very Mon, 09 Nov 2009 00:25:05 GMT Larry Wolfe http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/empinbalmachines/message/17794 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/empinbalmachines/message/17794 Was it submerged for a while or something? Just kidding....where had that game been stored until you rescued it? I've never heard of a game or seen any game Mon, 09 Nov 2009 00:06:53 GMT Randel Henson http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/empinbalmachines/message/17793 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/empinbalmachines/message/17793 Hi Dan,   Mine was a basket case when I got it.  I had to take apart every relay just to get them functional.  All of the score reels were seized, steppers Sun, 08 Nov 2009 23:52:50 GMT Randel Henson http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/empinbalmachines/message/17792 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/empinbalmachines/message/17792 Thanks Gary,  I will check those this week.   R Thanks Gary, I will check those this week.

I took the playfield to a body shop friend and I asked him what I had Sun, 08 Nov 2009 18:59:36 GMT cfh http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/empinbalmachines/message/17789 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/empinbalmachines/message/17789 This is the problem with "spray cans", you can't prep the materials to be sprayed. You have a classic case of "fisheyes" here.

There would have been wax residue
