This is a short summary on the best supplies and steps to clean and restore a pinball machine play field.
I cover just the highlights from what I have learned over a year of doing research combing through on-line documents and videos covering pinball restoration.
I was lucky to have an artist in the family that has the fine skills needed to mix the best matched color and put down the paint and lettering.
Thanks aunt Vida!

Vida is an amazingly skilled porcelain painter and has her own home studio.
Please visit Vida’s website (www.VidasCollectibles.com) and maybe order an item or two for someone special in your life or for yourself.
She kiln fires each item multiple times as she adds layers of paint then signs each piece which are all unique works of art in themselves.
