So my wife decided that she wanted the CB radio in her car painted to match the interior of her car, so I obliged her. I used Krylon paint+primer, let it dry for a few minutes, and then put it in the oven at 150 degrees for 30 minutes. I gave it one good coat, baked that coat, then gave it a 2nd layer and baked that coat on, and I'm gonna leave it sitting inside on my desk until she needs to use the car again to give the paint a chance to get good and hard before I put it back in the car. I also painted the mounting knobs and the screws for the cover and speaker white to accent the purple, and to match what she's doing to the interior of the car. While I had it apart I also cleaned some corrosion off the solder side of the board which seems to have resolved an issue I was having using the radio on single side band, and I cleaned and polished up the chrome on the faceplate. I had considered stenciling some white designs onto it like pawprints or something, but once I got the purple done she liked it the way it was so I'm leaving it alone. Contrary to how it might look in the last picture, I did not paint the speaker, I removed it and painted the cover by itself, but the photo came out kind of fuzzy.

Here it is before I started.
