mattastic13[TK] Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 I finally have got a bucket and will receive it hopefully this week. OK...I searched for this and came up with 2 options. What paint do you masters use on your vocoders. I have seen flat black and gloss black. Thanks for your help. Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nyoron Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 DARN IT. I just sanded off my flat black and put on some gloss black. I have the worst luck ever, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigturc Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 Definitely flat black! I first did it in gloss .. and it was bothering me as hell!!! I finally just repainted over it with flat black. Both cases were Testor paints. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smitty Posted October 22, 2008 Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 For my TK I used gloss black and for my TX I used flat blak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperTrooper Posted October 22, 2008 Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 Going through some reference pictures, there appear to be both glossy and flat. Like most things in the SWOT there is no consistency. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
