spraypainting turntables

if i get a used pair of 1200s that are stained and have writing on them, can i take the top of the actual turntable, and spraypaint it?

i know they do, but for 50 dollars each, i'd rather spraypaint them (if possible).

take the cover off before you paint it. otherwise you will get paint all over the motor..and well I dont know how good spray paint would be for a motor.
and dont spraypaint it..use an actual brush, will look much better

if they sell replacable covers then im pretty sure it must come off

i would suggest putting a couple clear coats on once you paint it though because it'll feel sticky otherwise and could even potentially turn into mush if they get really hot from using them for a long time or something

plus it'll look better

Definitely use an airbrush. I have one of these babies from when i used to make lots of models. They can make some seriously sick patterns. Great for blending more than one colour together and getting thin streaks. They also give a much cleaner finish than a spray can. You can buy them for around $70us.

I know someone who had pdx-2000s and he actually made his only covers out of metal. They look seriously mean. All molded and shit with a full trippy pitch adjust and all.
