Dash, how were the fumes from that?
I reinforced the mic tips using sock pieces and glue and then painted the inside with Rust-oleum Painter's Touch Flat Black using a foam brush. No smell at all, but it does take a couple coats to cover, swab it on , wait 5 minutes so that layer is good and tacky and do another coat. I bought an 8 oz can and have 90% of it left over.
