It looks like after I get done with all these Space Shuttles it's on to
a bunch of Comets.
It seems to me that when they were brand new, they were screened with
fluorescent colors? They were a cash cow and we put a lot of them out
there, but every one I see now, the playfield is in just terrible shape.
Faded, planked and the un Mylared areas are just chalk.
I think I'm just going to re screen the playfields rather than a
conventional restore.
Does anyone remember, or have an actual un faded playfield to
reference?

I don't know about the colors, but am more interested in getting a playfield done. If there is a run being done can another be added?

Sure, I don't see why not.

I have an NOS playfield sitting in my closet waiting for a swap.

What do you need?
