    Konica Minolta Bizhub C558 Body Paint

    Hello Everyone.

    I have a Konica Minolta Bizhub C558. The white section of the body on the machine has become a little dirty and a little bit yellowish.

    Can someone please let me know how to paint it. And what kind of paint would be suitable for it and where can i get it.

    Thanks in advance.

    try bleach/water 50/50 first.
    We know a thing or two because we've seen a thing or two.
    The medication helps though...

      I would try to clean first. I've never had success painting covers. It looked worse than before painting!

      There was just a post on this forum about back in the analog days there were companies that you could send covers out to be painted, not sure if they are around anymore. There was also a company that sold copier paint "ricoh beige", etc but haven't seen in years

          Clean as suggested, WD40 cleans pretty good might need to find a stronger solvent if necessary. If you do decide to paint, I would use spray paint designed for vinyl.
