Pulled the trigger on my first PINSNAKE (https://www.pinsnake.com/) to help clean those hard to reach places on the pinball machines. At the same time picked up the extra 3-pack of towels that go with the Pinsnake. $57 USD for my order made on 3/1/2025.
Clever name, clever design. Eager to see how this badboy works in action. These are hand-made, btw.
I went right to work on those hard to difficult places to reach on Iron Maiden.
This far right lane up beneath the ramp.
Loop across from small upper flipper, also under the ramp and difficult to reach without taking stuff apart.
Trooper lock shot and auto plunge loop.
Upper left ramp area around and past sarcophagus lock.
Summary: the Pinsnake delivered on its promises. I haven’t tried re-washing the included towels yet, but that seems like the next step in my journey with this useful cleaning tool for pinball machines. Have any of you reading tried this product for cleaning hard to reach areas on your pinball machine? Please share your findings: good, bad or indifferent in the comments.
