I recently got a bunch of blem enclosures from mammoth. Unfortunately one of em is hot pink. There's no way I'm putting hot pink anything on my board. I was gonna just sand it down and repaint it but was wondering if anyone had any cool ideas of things I could do with it instead.
Ideas for non-pedal uses of the enclosure? Or ideas to get rid of the paint besides sanding? I would make some hellish octave down doom machine in that pink box and proudly put it on display and own that sh*t. Let everyone else catch up.

Yeah , I'm with Garcho on that one !
Ya get rid of the paint ideas. Is a 1590a that I was gonna use for a buffer. I just can't do pink. Guess ill just sand and repaint
Yeah, I guess a pink buffer is a bit of a let down. :D Do you have a dremel or similar thing? You can experiment or practice with your metal brush techniques before sanding it all off.
One does want a hint of color on their pedal board. ::)

Mine looks like a candy shop.
How about applying some heat for that pink bugger? Might save some elbow grease. Also, who knows, what kind of color/texture burned pink provides.
Lots of stickers, or just gaffa tape if you're not feeling that creative. I'm guessing as it's for a buffer it won't be stomped on, so therefore won't need a hard-wearing finish.
Only he who is truly comfortable with his masculinity has hot pink on his pedal board.

First thing that crossed my mind: "Big Muff Pi"
Yeah, I know. Blame it on Electro-Harmonix
Seriously, build a pedal of some sort and put it on ebay or something. Someone will buy it.
Put a waterslide of a taco and call it a ________. :icon_twisted:
Buy a matching dress and accessories...
seriously though, i bet a girl would love a pink pedal, stick a pink led in it too.... :icon_cool:
Candy stripe it and throw a fuzz circuit in there.
Jack White style.

i think i'm gonna try burning it... sounds like a fun experiment... i'll try and document it and let you know how it turns out. i got another cool idea for it. i'll let you know if it works out. thanks for all the input guys!
I have a hot pink enclosure that I am planning to use. My wife is a nurse in a breast cancer clinic, so we have lots of pink-themed items in my house.
just build the pink pedal, then learn how to fight.

Pink as a feminine colour is a fairly recent construct. We're all building pedals using older analogue technology, but it's still thru-hole. lol
I`ll take it off your hands.
I`m color blind, (Now... do I cut the red wire, or the blue wire?)
and deaf. (I can see your lips moving, but I can`t hear you insulting my pedalboard.)
Yeah, hot pink would really spruce up my board. :icon_cool:
If your masculinity is so fragile and sensitive that the color pink destroys it, maybe you're not very masculine. Just sayin'. ;D

i just don't like the color pink. i do find it feminine but thats not really the issue. i'm down w/ purple... just pink... especially HOT pink makes me feel like i'm trying to say something. what that something is... i don't know but i don't want to say anything. i just want a damn buffer thats all
put a brown pedal next to it. one in the pink...

I totally get it, was just joking around. :)
