MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
Anyone know if I can paint a satellite dish. Ours is looking a bit on the tatty side - faded and a bit rusty so just wondered if it can be tidied up.
I've certainly seen some painted ones. Flowers would be nice 🙂
I was thinking more along the lines of matt black.
Yes you can, ensure you don't paint the LNB and be prepared for some signal degredation, but it should be ok if signal strength is currently ok
As long as you use a paint without any metallic content - it'll be fine

There won't be any signal degradation - I'm not sure why you say don't paint the LNB?
We paint all our dishes [& LNBs/SSPAs] without any signal loss
So would something like matt hammerite be fine uplink?
One day all dishes will be be made this way,hopefully

I wouldn't use Hammerite
Only because the stuff I've seen looks a bit metalic
Non-metallic car paint/primer will do
www.brymar.co.uk
they sell painted dishes and paint for them
Wouldn't metalic paint be good, after all the dish is made of metal in the first place?
matallic paint will affect the signal.
