Pinball restoration do's and don'ts?

[hanabi]

Does anyone know a good source for playfield plastics? After doing a google search I've found some sellers but they all seem to be out of stock.

Are playfield plastics as rare as rocking horse poop?

If you're not particularly wanting new plastics for your T2

there are some used ones listed on eBay right now

Thanks. I bought a replacement apron from this seller then promptly removed the paint from it by using Windex

A new decal is now on the way. I'm learning quite a lot very quickly about pinball resto. It's defiantly a bit more involved (and costly) than just cleaning a few tracks and a cell on a Pachinko.

i learned exactly the same lesson years ago .one wouldn't think windex would be strong enough to do that.
