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?

Take a look: http://www.sz-wholesale.com/p/EL-wire/electroluminescent-wire-EL-wire-neon-wire-24137.html It's used a lot in pc modding, so it would be easy to find it in many variants and colours. Hope that helps.

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!! -RW-

No contact with LP then. Or do like they said, colored LEDS or lights. Then it can be changed according to mood!
