Appendix A - Painting the Speaker

If the speaker is installed in an area where the interior design requires 
a color match, these speakers are simple to paint. The speakers can 

accommodate almost any type of latex or oil-based paint. The bezel/rim 

can be painted before installation or after mounting into the wall.

Painting Process

Clean the rim and grille with mineral spirits or other light solvent. Do 
not use harsh solvents such as gasoline, kerosene, acetone, or other 
chemicals. If you use these cleaners you may permanently damage the 
enclosure. Also, don’t use abrasives products such as sandpaper or
steel wool. Either by rolling or spraying, apply two or more thin coats 
of paint. If you are spraying, hold the spray can at the angles shown in 

Figure 13. If you are painting the grille also, you must first remove the 

internal grille cloth. Spray painting is strongly recommended. If the grille
is rolled or brush painted, the grille may become clogged with paint and 
the sound quality will suffer. After the paint has dried, replace the inter-
nal grille cloth. If you wish to paint the speaker along with the wall after 
installation, insert a plastic or cardboard paint shield into the front of the 

speaker to mask the drivers and internal baffle, paint the speaker, then 

remove the shield.
