I assume you meant the Alto logo ...A little piece of gaff tape can make that logo go away very quickly.

Maybe you could get an EV sticker to cover it upI assume you meant the Alto logo ...
My ADJ Dotz TPar came with a carry case, remote, foot pedal, and light stand. It's a pretty nice stand except The black plastic grip on one of the adjustment knobs on the stand was shattered (when it arrived) into a bunch of little pieces. I'm using one of the knobs from my old light stand because this new one is a better stand. I've contacted the seller (IDJNow), and they seem to be willing to replace the knob, but I'm impatient, and I'm always game for trying to fix something broken if at all possible. So I got out the Gorilla Glue and glued as many of the larger pieces to the bolt as I could. There's still 15-20 tiny pieces it would be impossible to piece back together, leaving big gaps and cracks in the knob. With the glue having dried, it DOES feel pretty sturdy, but looks like crap.[emoji1] So I used some epoxy to fill in the gaps, and now it's looking like a real knob. After it dries good, I'll sand it down and shape it (on the grinder), then I'll paint it, and it should look good as used.[emoji1] At least it will match the other knobs. My OCD won't let me have an unmatched set of knobs indefinitely[emoji1], and the missing knob on my old (now unused) light stand is giving me an uncomfortable feeling.[emoji1]

... more or less. Those (on the left) are some of the pieces I could not piece back in. You'd NEVER guess if you didn't know. And it's as sturdy as you'd ever need. If IDJNow sends me a new knob, I'll use it, but at least I have a functional adjustment knob until then.
Didn't have any high gloss paint, so I had to use satin, but I can get some later and repaint it. I wish I had taken a pic of all the little pieces before I glued them together.
They're going to be worth serious coin at some point.Looks like I'm gettin' a new knob. IDJNow contacted the manufacturer and the manufacturer is going to ship it to me at no charge. Nice! I guess the work I did to reconstruct the shattered knob was unnecessary.[emoji1] Oh well.[emoji1] I coulda spent that time makin' trading cards of Steve149.[emoji1]
