Evaluation - Step Three
The third step in the evaluation process is to assess the condition of the machine’s backglass.
The condition of the machine’s backglass or translite, whichever is applicable, is judged based on the following criteria:
Does the backside of the backglass have any areas where the silkscreened design is lifting from the glass or has already peeled off?
Are there any areas of the backglass where the design is “spider webbing” or the colors have faded?
Are there deep and noticeable scratches in the backglass or translite?
This Bally Playboy backglass is as nice as it gets. No issues at all! 10/10
Here is another nice backglass which shows no damage to the silkscreened design.
This Rolling Stones backglass, while dirty, shows very little permanent damage.
These 2 are very badly damaged. Notice that the silkscreened design is delaminating from the glass and small pieces have
completely peeled off the glass.
