Every pinball machine that leaves our workshop is restored with a lot of heart and time. This includes a mechanical and technical inspection of each device, as well as an intensive cleaning of the playing surface and the housing. We offer our customers three different restoration levels to choose between. It is important to know that the technical level of the devices is always on the highest level. All devices function perfectly and will continue to do so for many years. However, if problems should occur, we are of course available for help and advice!
The different levels are "Gold", "Platinum" and "Diamond". The difference here lies mainly in the time invested by our team to enhance the device, especially visually, and to increase the longevity of the pinball machine.
With a total of 400 meters of cable and over 3,500 individual parts, a restoration is very time-consuming. We set ourselves high standards in terms of quality and customer satisfaction.which we would like to offer to every pinball fan.
gold
A flipper of the level Gold was restored with a lot of time and lifeblood. It is technically at the highest level and has been tested by experienced and professional hands.
The playing surface is thoroughly cleaned without dismantling all superstructures. The playing surface is then sealed with a special spray to make it shine again and protect it from dust and dirt. All contacts, switches, motors and moving parts are checked for function by our team and replaced with new parts if necessary. All coils, plungers and stoppers are tested for function and impact and also replaced with new parts if they are no longer in optimal condition. In addition, broken plastics are replaced with new ones if they are still available.
Furthermore, all lamps and flashers are checked and replaced if necessary. Worn rubbers are also replaced. The case is then completely cleaned. The display is tested for 100 percent functionality and replaced if it malfunctions. Flipper fingers, targets, bounce contacts and rollover switches are adjusted or replaced as needed. Additionally, pinball fingers and the trigger are adjusted to the perfect pull so the player can shoot up any ramp and hit all targets perfectly. Furthermore, circuit boards, plugs, transistors, fuses & cables are checked for defects and repaired or renewed if necessary. All pinball machines are set to free play if technically possible. If desired, Euro coin acceptors can be installed for an additional charge to use the machine as a piggy bank.
platinum
Platinum is the restoration stage based on gold. All technical tests carried out at Gold are of course also included at Platinum. Platinum level pinball machines have enjoyed a much higher expenditure of time by our team. All superstructures on the playing surface are dismantled and cleaned from all sides. Also the playing surface is now completely cleaned. The feet are replaced and the leg screws replaced. In addition, the flipper legs are cleaned and, if necessary, painted or replaced.
diamond
Pinball machines in the diamond category also receive a special playfield protector that was specially made for the respective pinball machine. The protector is not glued, so it can be removed at any time without leaving any residue. Due to the special transparent surface the playing field looks like painted and gives the pinball a special shine. Please note that a protector is not available for every machine.
