Go for it!
I did this with a 1985 Quasar color portable which was PINK as found.... Painted it black(I see a red door...) I used regular old Krylon flat black and the hardest part was keeping the paint from hardening over the ventilation slots of the back cab. Still have it in 'long-term-storage' somewhere... Like compucat said, a b/w set is a gift when tackling this kind of work...reassembly shouldn't be too tough because to reinstall the tube you skip right over the annoying convergence and purity procedures. When i did mine this ate up more time than the actual painting...But then again this was circa 2004 and I was pretty much a novice. And yeah, what's with those older computers turning totally yellow? I thought it was due to cigarette smokers but the flame-retardant additive makes more sense. Have seen late eighties-early nineties PCs which were completely yellow. Also. I have the SAMS for this exact set...if you need any info from it. |
