[Elecraft] Touch up Paint Recommendations
Whoops, I am working on making an External Speaker for my K2 with an EC2 Enclosure. Metalwork is not my strong point. Any way I am probably going to have to sand and repaint the entire front panel where I tried to cut out the opening for the speakers. Can any one recommend a type and color of spray paint the matches the color and shade of Elecraft Gray? 73 KI4DGH Chuck G. ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

Hi Chuck; Get pewter color. That is the closest I've found and I have painted a cabinet with it and it looks very close. To get a look at the cabinet I painted, have a look in the Elecraft pictures archive or try the link at the end of this email and you'll see the power supply/speaker cabinet I painted for my K1. http://www.elecraft.com/PictureGallery/NewPics2/VE3RPF_K1and%20PS.jpg Robert VE3RPF Can any one recommend a type and color of spray paint the matches the color and shade of Elecraft Gray? 73 KI4DGH Chuck G. ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

Re: [Elecraft] Touch up Paint Recommendations
Hi Chuck, why not just use the touch up paint that Elecraft sells for any small oops? or get one of the small sprayers you see at a hobby shops that has its own little can of compressed air to recoat the front panel? btw I covered the front panel with a layer of masking tape when I did mine... great for laying out where I wanted to cut and kept me from scratching up the panel . 73 Kevin WA6FWF - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net Sent: Thursday, June 16, 2005 2:29 PM Subject: [Elecraft] Touch up Paint Recommendations Whoops, I am working on making an External Speaker for my K2 with an EC2 Enclosure.
