Painting the Frame, Painting the Grille | Polk Audio TC610i TC615i

PAINTING THE FRAME:

1.Apply paint to exposed (unmasked parts). Use two or more thin coats. Spray painting is recommended [figure 7].

2.When the paint is completely dry, remove the masking material.

PAINTING THE GRILLE:

1.The grille of the TCi Series speaker features an even, protec- tive powder coating. This powder coating is an ideal primer.

2.Grilles must be spray painted. Do not use a brush and paint. Thick, brushed paint may clog the grille holes.

3.TC615i model: Before spray painting the grille, carefully remove the grille’s fabric scrim by peeling it away from the inside of the grille [figure 8]. Place this on a clean, flat surface where it will not get wrinkled.

4.After removing the grille by carefully hooking it with a bent paper clip and pulling it gently away from the frame, spray on two thin coats of finish color. If you’re using a compressor and spray gun, use the finest, most diffuse setting. Be careful not to fill the holes in the grille with paint [figure 9].

PEINTURE DU CADRE:

1.Appliquez deux minces couches de peinture (ou plus) aux pièces non masquées. Il est recommandé de vaporiser le cadre de peinture [figure 7].

2.Lorsque la peinture est complètement sèche, retirez les cache-peinture.

PEINTURE DE LA GRILLE:

1.La grille des haut-parleurs de la Série TCi est enduite d’une peinture protectrice. Cette peinture constitue un apprêt idéal.

2.Les grilles doivent être vaporisées de peinture. N’utilisez pas de pinceau. La peinture plus épaisse appliquée au pinceau pourrait boucher les trous.

3.Modèle TC615i: avant de vaporiser la grille, retirez la toile qui revêt l’intérieur de la grille [figure 8]; placez-la sur une surface propre et plate pour qu’elle ne se froisse pas.

4.Après avoir dégagé la grille à l’aide d’un trombone plié et l’avoir retirée du cadre, retirez sa toile de revêtement intérieur puis vaporisez-la de deux minces couches de pein- ture de finition. Si vous utilisez un compresseur ou un pistolet pulvérisateur, choisissez le réglage le plus fin, le plus diffus. Assurez-vous de ne pas boucher les trous de la grille avec la peinture [figure 9].
