Touching up SDA2B Studios
Swordphsh
Posts: 18
I have a pair of SDA2B studio editions that the previous owner did not care very good care of. There are several dings and gashes around the edges and a spot in the middle on top where the vinyl is split and peeling. There are also a few spots were the finish is starting to wear off the vinyl and it looks somewhat faded.
I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for touching them up without refinishing the cabinets.
I can post pics later today if anyone's interested.

That sounds like the only way to really restore them is going to be to strip the covering and either go back with a new covering. One or two guys have gone back with laminate, and the speakers looked extremely sharp when finished. It all depends on how much you can spend and what your skill level for that sort of thing are, or who you live close to.Turntable: Empire 208

I kinda figured, but was hoping there was some trick. I have very little skill in that area, unfortunately. -
There's a lot of polk guys up in your area. Maybe there's someone that's done this before and could help.Turntable: Empire 208
