I never said it was a paint job, where did you get that from, lol.

No paint. It's stock standard glow in the dark rubber, it was sold like that, brand new.

The RUBBER the pads are made with is glow in the dark rubber.
They are more soft than the normal grey/white 2kxl pads.

You don't put paint on rubber pads, wtf, LMAO.

Health probs with fumes, but you wanna use it now? lol. ? ? lol.

Peeps have been on the forum before wanting to pimp out their pads and spoke of painting their pads (seriously, cmon now). It's not such a smart thing to do.

No disrespect but neither is using military grade paint that was deemed unfit due to health problems caused by it.

I remember those fluorescent glow-in-the-dark colors (also those they use on watch dials) were said to contain radioactive components. Don't know how much truth is in that, or if they use something different nowadays. You got access to a geiger counter, Lamp? :D

No, I've always had a 2kxl+Eb16+32mb, after 3 months I traded it in and bought a
brand new 2kxlse2 (orange). When I tried it out the pads were WAY softer and I liked it. I bought it.

I actually posted my reciept somewhere here on the forums. Someone was talking about receipts so I
posted mine up. Second best purchase I ever made for gear.

As for the paint, I hear you man. I'm just not funkin with that stuff ya know.

My 2kxlse2 is stock standard color and I'll keep it that way, I don't need anything extra, I outfitted it with
an MCD but that's it, nothing else is needed.

If I do end up with another mpc, I'll get it custom painted the EXACT same color/pattern as my 2kxlse2
cause I'm very comfortable with that.
