Fine playfield scratches
« on: November 25, 2015, 10:52:36 PM »

Had my MMRLE professionally installed.  One of the installers fixed a couple minor problems with the metal ramp protectors.  The game was boxed until delivered, and was not unboxed prior to delivery.  I did not inspect the playfield closely at time of delivery.  After finally getting a chance to play it a few days later a few playfield scratches caught my eye once I turned it off.  I removed the glass and upon closer inspection noticed fine scratches covering the majority of the playfield, except the orange area Near the bottom.  These scratches are very visible when viewed from certain angles, even with the glass installed.  I inspected the balls for a second time and did not notice any imperfections either visually or to the touch.  Total gameplay is less than an hour.  I have since applied two coats of polish from a local distributor that I have used with great success on my STLE and it has partially masked some of the scratches.  I can't believe this is normal.  My only other NIB to compare is STLE and that playfield is mint with virtually no scratches when viewed from any angle even with the glass removed.  Is there possibly a clearcoat issue?  I reported this a few days ago to my distributor.
Thx
