Spraying the platter


I have a TT with acrylic platter, I was wondering if I spray the platter with a color that I like would that change the sound?

No! But definitely, it will change the color of the platter unless you are using "Natural" or "Clear".

I hope you do not mind but may I ask why you want to change the color of the platter? I am curious!
Markd51, I'm not trying to achieve anything as far as sound is concerned, it's purely for cosmetic purposes. I normally listen to my music in total darkness, I thought it would be cool to spray some invisible UV paint on the platter so that it will shine under blacklight, but then I'm worried that it will spoiled the sound.

Thanks for the LED light suggestion, I took a look at MCintosh TT, I don't know how they do it. When I look at my TT, the spacing between the platter and the plinth is too small to accommodate any LED.

Thanks
if you want to add some cool effect, what about placing some EL wire on the plynth, all around the platter? Take a look:

It's used a lot in pc modding, so it would be easy to find it in many variants and colours. Hope that helps.

Go ahead and spray it, those who worry that it will change the sound suffer from Audiophilia Nervosa. I *would* recommend that you use a platter mat to keep the records from making direct contact with the paint. Go for it - it'll look great!!
