I have a K6100 monitor that works fine (now) but has a lot of rust on it and the shield behind the tube. Rust even got on the frame-mount transistors (since replaced with new insulators) and the HV adjustment pot disintegrated.
I'd like to take the frame and shield and sand all the rust off and paint it with an aluminum-color spray paint made for painting metal. Will I have to worry about grounds? There are five wires from the neckboard and tube have eyelets that are screwed to the frame, as is the HV cage. Will my grounds be okay?
And what about the shield? Will paint affect it?
