Thinking about having a change of plan regarding how I restore the truly knackered playfield I have in my Paragon:
So I'm wondering if anyone has got a spare Paragon PF in better condition than mine? Maybe you've already done a swap and have the other one wedged down the back of the shed? If it's less worn than mine it would make a better starting point.
I was generously given a spare PF that had been in better condition but unfortunately it had rotted away after years of storage in a shipping container and had woodworm. I've managed to salvage a few parts, the odd lower-layer plastic, some coils, etc., and I can use it to test cleaning, sanding, clear coat, airbrushing and decal techniques:
Doesn't that just look so sad? Possibly the most beautiful playfield artwork ever created reduced to rot, rust and mould
when it used to look like this:
I know it's a long shot and if you do happen to have a NOS I doubt I'd be able to afford the going rate, but there's never any harm in asking.
