SECTION 5 : ENCLOSURE CARE AND MAINTENANCE
PAINTING JBL VP SERIES SYSTEM PRODUCTS
VP Series enclosures are constructed of 5/8-in. multi-ply exterior grade Baltic birch. Each enclosure model is inter-
nally braced. The exterior is covered with JBL’s exclusive DuraFlex™ finish.
Each JBL Professional VP Series system model is readily paintable. The DuraFlex finish provides a lightly textured
surface that any household or industrial paint readily adheres to. The result is a speaker enclosure that is able to
blend unobtrusively into the decor of any stage set or environment.
Instructions for painting:
1. Prepare the enclosure surface by cleaning and wiping off dust and film with a damp cloth. It may be necessary to
use a mild household cleaner to remove grease. Avoid using a cloth that will deteriorate over the textured surface.
2. Apply as many coats of paint as is required. Application can be by rolling, brushing or spraying. Care must be
taken when painting the grille. Avoid any paint or type of application that will clog the open cells in the foam of the
front grille. Depending on the type of paint, it may not be wise to spray the grille.
3. For painting systems that are installed in environmentally-hostile locations, it is recommended that an automotive
paint should be used for maximum protection.
Note: for systems that will be transported on a regular basis, oil-based paints or Krylon-type spray paints will give
better long-term results than water-based Latex type paints.
