8 Customizing and Painting

NOTE: The Helos 10 can be either painted in place or

removed from the ceiling for painting.

IMPORTANT! Do not paint the rear of the speaker or the

surface behind the grill.

1 Remove the grill from the Helos 10 (see figure 12).

2 Press the paint shield into place (see figure 12).

3 In a well ventilated area paint the Helos 10 speaker

frame, allowing frame to dry completely between coats.

IMPORTANT! The grill must be removed from the speaker

before painting.

IMPORTANT! The scrim must be removed before painting

the grill.

IMPORTANT! The logo badge must be removed before

painting the grill.

1 Remove the grill from the Helos 10 (see figure 13).

2 Remove the logo badge (see below).

3 A protective scrim is attached to the back of the grill

with low-tack adhesive. Remove this scrim by gently

pulling it away from the grill cover (see figure 13).

4 Paint the grill being careful not to plug the holes. For

best results use a spray rather than a brush. Allow paint

to completely dry before proceeding.

5 Gently press the scrim and logo badge back into place

before reinstalling the speaker grill.

Removing the Logo Badge

The MartinLogan logo badge on the Helos 10 is remov-

able. To do this, gently depress the tabs on the back of the

logo badge (see figure 14).
