Mr. Pinball tip for Tuesday, March 19, 2024

I only recommend small spots of mylar be applied to playfields for specific areas of high wear. Such areas that usually receive heavy wear are magnetic areas (such as magnasave), eject hole landing spots, circles around pop bumpers, or anywhere the ball will drop from a ramp onto the playfield. Mylar tends to lift from the playfield, especially over playfield inserts (those flush mounted lighted plastic lenses), slow the ball motion, and appear dingy and dull after extended use. For these reasons mylar is usually not the best solution to protect an entire playfield, but it is fine for spot use.
