rockkeys Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 any advice on what type of paint would be best for doing a custom paint-job on a Numa Organ? Don't dig the white, and would like to do something funky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Warren Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 That depends on what type of paint was used originally. Most likely the best paint to use will be acrylic lacquer car paint, but it would be best to test compatibility on a small area first. DigitalFakeBook Free chord/lyric display software for windows.

Mike Warren Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Oh, and if the panel is bare plastic, then a plastic primer would need to be used first. DigitalFakeBook Free chord/lyric display software for windows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Throbert Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 If it's metal you could get it powder coated. They'll strip it before hand. If it's plastic then you should scuff it up, prime and paint.

Mogut Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 You'll lose all the graphics, and print. Based on your post asking for advice, reveals you as newbie painter. (no offense, I am not a painter either). It wont look as good... IMO Whats wrong with the white anyways? -Greg Motif XS8, MOXF8, Hammond XK1c, Vent Rhodes Mark II 88 suitcase, Yamaha P255 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wanted to know what to tell the guy who will be painting it. I'm sure he will come to the same conclusions. Oh, and there is nothing wrong with white! I just really want a funky, tie-die psychedelic type thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mogut Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 Will lose resale value as well... Make sure this is not an impulse decision. The white aint so bad btw. -Greg Motif XS8, MOXF8, Hammond XK1c, Vent Rhodes Mark II 88 suitcase, Yamaha P255 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockkeys Posted April 7, 2011 Author Share Posted April 7, 2011 No the white is fine, it's just that I really dig the idea of having a funky splash of many colours. Killing the resale is exactly what I need to do to keep me from changing clones! This will be my LAST clone purchase. After this, it's a receptor and software B3's for me. The action of the Numa is exactly what I like for organ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You always have to think with this type of technology you will want to sell sooner or later and it will really hurt any kind of residual. "Danny, ci manchi a tutti.
