Will keep that in mind!

Ok, volgende klus, oops, must be in English....

Okay, next job.. finished refoaming CX50's and 100's.

 

This is how I got a BL4000. Needs some restoration...

New cloths, red, white or blue?

Maybe white so because of that that I need to make the grill white as well..

Finished Beolab 4000 which can be used as a center speaker.

Changed black into white cloth...

Sprayed all 3 panels in white..

Brasso copper polish to give the laquer a shiny look...

Polishing panels...

Et voila...🙂

Beste Leslie,

Waar bestel jij de Mecanorma wrijfletters om het front van de BL5000 mee te herstellen? Mijn versie is in goede staat behalve de cijfers en strepen van de volumeslider. 

Alvast bedankt,

Dave

Hi Leslie,

how did you remove the top and base plate of the BL4000s without damaging them?

BR

Riven

Temperature controlled heatgun Riven. It wil come loose by itself eventually. The topplate consist 2 parts, metal carrier which is attached on the (plastic) housing with thick foamtape and on top of that the thin aluminium plate. I choose to remove the whole topplate to prevent damaging.

Dear Leslie,

 

These decals are the black rub-on letters to replace the original black printed numbers behind the volume slider (nr's 1-10). How do you restore the black lines?

Greetz,

Dave
