Pics of white bboxes

[LJV]

Please post if you have any. Original color or custom painted. Plain white and pearl white.
I‘ve seen white mainly on minis, never on midsize or really large ones.
I keep on wondering how the grails would look custom-painted in white or pearl white.
Has anyone done it already?
Thank you in advance!

Thanks. There‘s something about pearl white that emits kind of warmth and completely eliminates cheapness of plastic as the material.

Here is a pic of my white GF-7 with its red twin.


This is another sharp which I used to own, its a GF-5757.

Thank you all.
As a visual kind of guy, I notice that all bboxes including white ones, really should be photographed without a flash and under a warm light.
Just compare JustCruisin‘s two pics of the same bbox. Second pic, the closeup, tells much more than the first one, it is so much richer.
The outdoor pics are definitely best when it matters need for visual assessment of condtion of bbox, but when it matters taking pic for the sake of showing all the beauty of the mint bbox, than it shouold be made indoor, without a flash, and under warm light.
Thanks again!

I've this Sharp QT-37 new arrival to add to the thread. Pictured after a function test but prior to clean-up & ever so slightly crackly controls, it sounds very good despite being a 'Tone' box.

This is purest 80s design. Perfection!
I wonder if those sliders were originaily beige or did the plastic just turned yellow?
I‘ve seen it on many otherwise mint units. They sort of ruin the overall impression, but I reckon it can be cleared or painted.

Taking again opportunity to thank to all who posted.

Sweet little mini! Lovin' the simple elegant lines on it. Great clean looking kitchen unit.

Hi, LJV. The slider controls have, sadly yellowed with age - but it's not the end of the world!

Thanks and just my own thoughts as well.

Hi, LJV. The slider controls have, sadly yellowed with age - but it's not the end of the world!

Than take them of and dipp them in Domestos solution in a jar and leave them a day or two. Domestos clears everything. I‘ve used it o yellowed plastic, metal even ceramics.
Rinse and scrubb. Keep children and pets from the Domestos and wear protective glowes.
It does wonders. You can test it first on some junk piece of aged/yellowed plastic.
