OT: mod my Faceplate

[Where She Wept]

Does anyone know how to remove the Diamond plate on the front of a Dual Rec? I have a friend that's going to powder coat it for me, but i looked in the back and there arent any screws.

It's probably glued on. Don't take my word for it though.

Call Mesa, seriously. They'll help you out.

I was wondering the same thing. I was wanting to replace the diamond plate on my triple recto with smoked plexi glass so you can see all the purdy tubes I f you find out how to do it let me know man.

it's held on with Industrial adhesive. and there's a full peice of wood behind it as well. I just broke out the masking tape and spraypaint, not as nice as a powdercoat, but you can't take it off without breaking something. Maybe if you heat it up first? but it's easy to burn something that way.

Here's a pic anyway

Right on man! looks good. There has to be a way to get that thing off, im wanting to make my faceplate transparent.

Nice. I like tha black. The smoked glass would be an interesting look, too. Do it, do it!

::looks at Fireball:: that's actually a cool sounding idea!

Take a pic if you end up doing it.

I'll probably do it over xmas, the faceplate isn't glued on or anything so I'll just take it off and spray it with car paint or something. Black and Chrome :Smug:
