Best of the season to you all...

I bought a pair of Monitor 10's from Krimney awhile back. While these sound great, their vinyl coverings have definitely seen better days. Over the Xmas holidays I was hoping to skin these down and refinish them. This may be a bit optimistic, as I haven't a friggin clue how to go about doing it. Has anyone done something similar, or have any ideas on the best way to tackle this?

Mucho thanks,
Mothra

    You can put new vinyl over the old vinyl - no problem.

    Just make sure it is clean...

    And take your time and do it right...
