Preparation:

(1)Separate the parts of the speaker. Remove the brackets and the knobs. Hook the grille with a bent paper clip, or the tip of a corkscrew, and gently pull it away from the cabinet.

(2)Wipe off the cabinet, the bracket, bracket knobs, and grille with a damp cloth. Do not touch or rub the speakers on the front baffle. Ensure everything is dry before masking.

(3)Cover the binding posts and the brass threaded inserts on the back panel, and the threaded inserts on the top and bottom with masking tape.

(4)Protect the front of the speakers by inserting the supplied paint masks in place of the grilles.

Painting the Cabinet, Bracket Knobs and Bracket:

(1)Apply two thin coats of a primer to the cabinet and knobs. We recommend a sandable spray primer.The bracket doesn't require a coat of primer.

(2)Allow the primer to dry completely.

(3)Apply the finish color, according to the directions supplied by the paint manufacturer.

(4)Allow the paint to dry completely.

(5)Carefully remove the baffle masking material.

(6)Do not reattach the speaker to the bracket until the bracket is mounted.Try to keep all handling of the freshly painted parts to a minimum.

Painting the Grille:

The grille is important to the sound of the "Tempest". Do not fill the holes of the grille with paint. It is constructed of painted aluminum; this paint is an ideal primer.

If you are using a spray paint, use two thin coats without any primer. If you are using a compressor and a spray gun, use the finest setting. Practice on paper if you are not experienced in painting with spray paint.

If you are using an applicator or brush and a can of paint, thin the paint first.Thick paint will tend to clog the grille holes.

Replacing the Grille:

Set the grille carefully into its recess. Starting with one corner, go around the speaker, pushing the grille in a little bit each time. Be gentle, the aluminum grille can be easily bent out of shape.You will feel a positive "snap" when it is fully in place.
