sepultura999 Posted June 26, 2005 Report Share Posted June 26, 2005 I am looking for a set of Red Plastic pickup rings. I can't find them on any site. I know Brian sells coloured pickup rings on universaljems.com but they're not listed, and they're not available for international shipping. Does anyone know of any website that sells red plastic pickup rings? Thanks. -Jamie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primal Posted June 26, 2005 Report Share Posted June 26, 2005 If you can find white plastic rings, you can get this spray paint at automotive places. Only this stuff doesn't put a layer of paint over the plastic, it actually dyes the plastic. Its used all the time in modding computer cases and stuff.

marksound Posted June 27, 2005 Report Share Posted June 27, 2005 I've never tried it, but Krylon Fusion is supposed to bond with plastic. I think I'd read up before trying it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegarehanman Posted June 27, 2005 Report Share Posted June 27, 2005 Painting pickup rings works fine. You can do it so well people won't know they weren't that color originally. When I was building my first guitar, I tried to get truely white pickup ring. Everything was cream, nothing was as white as i wanted. I ended up spraying them with auto paint(as I did with the whole guitar) that had a flex agent added to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wanted to say that the ones Brian has at Universal Jems are the perfect white. I wanted the same thing, I'm not a fan of cream but I love white. If you were still in need of a place for these definately check out Universal Jems, there are pretty inexpensive and he has a good variety of colors and types.

thegarehanman Posted June 27, 2005 Report Share Posted June 27, 2005 like i said. i already painted them. they look just as good as that too. i actually painted them 3 years ago when i built the guitar. you can take a glance at them on the link in the thread for the new guitar i'm building in the works in progress section.
