I finally got around to finishing my last Tone Bender enclosure. This started off all red, but I didn't like the colour as much as the yellow. So I stripped it back and started again. It would be too painful to do the inside, so I left that red. I like the contrast and the hint of the exterior inside with the red chicken head knobs.
I wanted a vintage space-age / airstream vibe, and I think I achieved that.
PAINT
Finished with a Deluxe clear spray, as I can't find Rustoleum clear coat at my local anymore. I tried an automotive clear coat, and it just didn't want to cure - think it needed really high heat for this to happen.
The interior is an automotive brake calliper paint, the same type that I used on the yellow enclosures.
DECALS / GRAPHICS
Pass - I just like the look of these clean at the moment. I may change my mind about this at a later date, but I'm really a bit of a minimalist at heart.
Where did you get your enclosure from? I am in Oz as well and I want to get my hands on these for my builds.

I had to use a postal forwarding service when I ordered as they didn’t like shipping outside the EU. Since Brexit they may have changed their mind.
It’s a good enclosure BUT it doesn’t come with a hard to find screw to hold the rubber feet on, and it has holes for pot tags to go through that you will probably want to fill.
