That letraset stuff is expensive! At least the custom transfer stuff which I would need for the bottom images...

Other question. Did you paint the panels or did you tape them over? either is suggested in your previous posts.

No you did not, I looked again and the painting was eugene. I got confused with you both making white panels in such different ways.

Yes, I am

Did I? link referred to adhesive tape so not painted!

I will need something like that or some other type of laminate to cover the speaker set I intend to match up. for smaller piece the paint is fine, but I wouldnt want to use it on a larger surface area like a speaker cabinet unless I sprayed it.

I have a set of S-75 with some pretty beat up woodwork that would be an ideal candidate for such a project.

I will need to do some "local" research to see if I can find something suitable.

Beautiful work on the Redline speakers (CX's too). 

Leslie, can you share your technique on the Redline grill cloth replacement?  Do you do it by yourself?  I restored a pair of RL140 speakers last year and they came out very good.  However, I finished those up thinking there has to be an easier way.  My method took three people.  I built some cardboard guides to allow me to spray adhesive (3M Super 77 I think) only to the areas I needed glue - the strap channels, the area where Bang & Olufsen is embossed and the rear area of the frame where the cloth attaches.  After spraying the glue on  I had a short amount of working time so two people kept the cloth taut while I place the frame down and wrapped the edges over and into position.  I also had to make sure I pressed down the front side (strap channels and embossed lettering).  I saw the other Beoworld post where two-sided tape was used on the rear of the frame.  That looks like a good alternative.  I would really like to know your steps and what kind of glue/tape you use.  Also, what kind of grill cloth did you choose?

Thanks,
