PAINTING
THE
OS3
The enclosure, the brackets, and the grilles of the OS3 can all be painted to match the surroundings. Because we want you to preserve the acoustic quali- ties of the grille, please paint the grille according to the grille painting instruc- tions. Make sure you pick a paint that is appropriate for the mounting location. There are interior and exterior varieties, and even paint for marine uses. If you are not sure what paint to use, consult a paint store professional or a painter.
TOOLS REQUIRED
•A spray can of primer paint (Krylon Sandable Spray Primer #1318)
•The correct paint for the surroundings (oil or water based paint is fine)
•A paint brush or applicator if the paint is not in a spray can.
•A paper clip or a corkscrew (for removing the grille)
•Masking tape
•2 paint masks (supplied)
•A damp cloth and a dry cloth
PREPARING TO PAINT
