To paint the base:
1.
Remove the flat-head Phillips screw in the top center
of the perforated metal grille. Lift off the grille, screen,
and foam pad.
2.
Wrap the grille in thin plastic film, use a pointed instru-
ment to perforate an opening for the screw, and re-
place the wrapped grille on the microphone.
3.
Replace and tighten the screw.
4.
Carefully paint the microphone base and screw head
with the desired color. To avoid getting any paint on
the connector, either mask it thoroughly or connect a
mating plug to it.
5.
Allow the paint to dry thoroughly.
To paint the metal grille:
1.
Once again, remove the flat-head Phillips screw in the
top center of the plastic-wrapped perforated metal
grille. Lift off the grille.
2.
Remove the plastic wrap and paint the outside of the
grille. Take care to use a thin layer only; do not fill the
perforated holes with paint.
3.
Allow the paint to dry thoroughly.
4.
Use fine sandpaper to remove any paint that may
have adhered to the outer edges of the grille and the
edging around the screw-hole.
IMPORTANT
For proper shielding it is extremely important to
maintain electrical continuity between the grille
and the metal base.
5.
Before replacing the grille, check that the fine-mesh
screen is clean. Otherwise, wash it in soapy water.
Rinse and dry it thoroughly.
6.
Replace the foam pad, mesh screen, and perforated
grille; and fasten securely with the Phillips screw.
