Painting before Installation

Clean the rim and grille with a light solvent such as white spirit. Do not use gasoline, kerosene, acetone, MEK, paint thinner, harsh detergents or other chemicals, all of which may damage the loudspeaker.
After cleaning, apply two coats of paint, using a roller or brush, or by spraying.
Painting the Speaker with the Ceiling
Using the paint shield provided, paint the speaker and remove the shield. To paint the grille, first remove the logo and grille cloth backing. It is advisable to spray the grille to avoid the mesh becoming clogged with paint from a roller or brush, which may impair the sound quality. Replace the grille cloth.
