PAINTING THE SPEAKER FRAME
AND GRILLE
The Revel IW70 and IW90 loudspeakers can be painted
to match any décor. If you wish to change their color,
the satin finish on the grille and frame will function as
a primer coat. Follow these instructions for proper
painting procedure:
1. Before beginning, carefully remove the grille (if installed),
and install the supplied plastic paint shield securely
in the recess in the baffle. The paint shield will
protect the speaker components and baffle from
paint residue.
2. Gently remove the scrim cloth from the grille
before painting.
3. Use a high-quality spray paint and apply a thin
coat of color.
CAUTION!
Ensure that the grille perforations
remain free of paint. Filling
them with paint will diminish
the sound quality.
4. A replacement scrim cloth is supplied. After the paint
has dried, apply a light coat of spray adhesive to
the inside of the perforated grille and attach a new
scrim cloth.
5. Remove the paint shield from the baffle and
attach the grille.
