You will have to find a pinball forum for those questions.

Perhaps the news group rec.games.pinball.

There is lots of arcade video game knowledge here, pinball not so much ...

I think they're teasing the person who replied to your post Jennifer. 

The person who said you should find some other site since we don't have a pinball forum here (which we do).

You're not dumb, we do have a contingent of pinball enthusiasts here that can probably help you with the restoration.

Throw a post up on our Pinball forum, I'm sure you'll be able to get some answers.
