Hi all,

Getting my TAF soon, found a source on where to get a Playfield Overlay
from if it is really bad, but I just want to know if a Overlay can be
Cleared or should it be once applied, thanks.

They have been cleared sucessfully, however you should consider sending
the playfield to Playfield Renovations or Bill Davis before you put the
overlay on, playfields can very often be restored to like new condition
by these pros via paint. Whereas if you sand off all the artwork to
apply an inferior overlay, there's no turning back.

Good point, I have just restored a HSII PF using 12 colours and allot of
time, seen a overlay and thought it would have been easier for my future
TAF, if its not that bad I will do the restoration myself of course.

I myself would much rather look at the original art but I just thought I
would ask.
