How to maintain/wax your pinball playfield - PinballHelp.com

[@daviddiienno4940]

The applicator you are using is BIG and pretty dirty. It is only going to grind dirt into your "clean" playfield. I have found that if you cut a micor-fiber cloth into 3 inch square sections it cleans much better, particularly in tight areas around pop bumpers and the ball shoot lane. Actually, the ball shoot, top arch, and exit lanes are very important as the ball tracks in these areas far more often than any other part of the playfield. I was surprised to see the chipped and brittle pop bumper skirts. These will continue to chip as the ball makes contact and deposit debris that will definitely damage the playfield no matter how many times your wax. After the wax dries, use the same approach and cut 3 inch squares of CLEAN micro fiber cloth to shine the palyfield. Many times, using a standard rag is too large and can catch playfield goodies such as plastics, and cause headaches.

If you have a really really old play field what should you do? I wiped it with Novus 2 and 1, helped a tad, but maybe just wax it?

Sorry. I don't typically edit the videos, which means it's not easy to show everything in one shot. I'll try to do something in the future that will show more. It's just that I tend to spend so much time working on stuff that I don't have time to edit everything.
