Revox B750 refurbished

Looking decidedly prettier now and sounding great with a replacement potentiometer fitted . Second system.
Last picture is the before shot.

Wow. That is magnificent. Really interested to know about the process you have used here Andy.

It was a really easy one Edward.
I started this morning by applying paint stripper ( to the metal top only ) , that took about an hour before I hosed it off , I then went over the surface with wire wool to get rid of any stubborn paint, then I primed it with a grey spray paint followed by the base colour ( I forget the actual colour ) it’s a dark metallic, then I applied 3 coats of clear lacquer, the side cheeks are plastic so once cleaned they just needed the same painting process.
All in all the paint came to about £24 .
I think it looks better than the original Revox Nextel ( textured paint) .

That is a lovely thing Andy, I always fancied one but when I have the money I can never find a decent one.....sods law I guess

Cheers Andy, this has given me the inspiration to try something I've been holding off for a long time.

The Alto amp. The one that Jerry originally had but bought from Brian. Did think of full chrome but that way expensive so may go for black using Andy's recipe.
