In response to your requests, we're now shippping all Team Voodoo shift knobs with the engraving masking left in place. This protects the knob during shipping, but most important, makes it easy to paint the shift pattern or S2000 logo in the color of your choice.

See this thread for photos of masked knobs and information on the engraving process we use:

Here's what the knob looks like with the masking in place:



If you've ordered a knob, when it arrives, take it out of the packaging carefully. If you don't want to paint the engraving, just strip off the masking and apply a few coats of Zaino or wax.

If you want to paint the engraving, first run lukewarm water over the knob, then pat the engraved area very gently with a soft, absorbent paper towel. This will remove any grit or dirt left over from the sandblasting and clean the engraved area for painting. Since some of the masking covers very small areas (the center of the zeros, for example), if you're too rough, you'll remove the masking in these areas and spoil it for painting.

Next let the knob dry thoroughly, for at least a few hours (the paint will not adhere if any of the engraved area is wet).

When the knob is dry, it's ready to paint. Using masking tape, mask any areas around the base of the knob where the metal may be exposed. Then, insert a dowel or stick in the back of a peice of cardboard and slip the knob over the dowel. This makes a nice mount for painting.

Finally, using a high quality epoxy or enamel aersol paint, spray three or four light coats into the engraved aread. Read the directions for the paint you use to be sure you allow the specified time between coats.

Let the paint thoroughly dry to the point where it's ok to touch, then strip off the masking.

When the paint is completely dry, apply several coats of Zaino or a good wax and thoroughly wipe the excess polish off.

The knob is ready to install.

 

Rick,

Are you going to offer another groupbuy like this in the near future?...second run? Thanks.

 

andyp,

Our prices are lower than those on Team Voodoo's web site and will stay that way permanently. There will be no more group buys because we're offering them permanently at what is essentially a GB price.

 

Voodoo knobs... Good!!!

Seriously guys, I have a plain Jane aluminum knob (no etching) and I love it. IMO, this is probably the best mod for the $ that you can make. Makes me do this

 

Rick, what about those magnum Ti knobs? Can I order one now?

 

We're working out the details with Bob Krueger of Team Voodoo now, and they should be available on our web site within a week.
