Painting the metal case of a Quadra 800/840av
Posted by: bigD on 2009-05-25 19:44:01
I thought I'd touch up the metal portion of the case on one of my 840av's (it's pretty scratched up), and was curious if anyone knew of a spray paint that matches the original color closely? All the spray paint I've been able to find seems to be a much darker shade of gray.

Thanks!

You should be able to take it to a paint store, and they should have a color analyzer. Then you will know the color.

Powder coat would be far superior to spray paint. Such a paint job could be performed by an auto body shop.
