as long as you put acrylic over it, it should stickpaint specified for plastic, obviously... the companys name is rust-oleum, that might help
painting buttons all black dont really work unless you did a really really good job sanding/spray painting them... the paint gets scratched off because of the frictionWell I just started my controller 30 mins ago, I am on my second coat, its nothing too special *** im just testing out this colour on one of my crappy controllers to see if I will like it. If I do like the colour I will probabley do it on one of my good controllers and paint all the buttons black.
not if you use a good clear coat.. on;y my Y is chiped because i banged it againt the BART train in my bagpainting buttons all black dont really work unless you did a really really good job sanding/spray painting them... the paint gets scratched off because of the friction
I thought i linked it..piZ, what type of paint did you use?
Okay! Turns out my touch memory is non-existant; my controller is smooth anyway, so no worries. Thanks.Sanding it removes the color from the plastic. The coats of paint should add back to the texture.
The ammount of clear coats you put on it will also effect how smooth it is.
Worst comes to worst you can use the sandpaper on the clearcoat to add some roughness to it, but I wouldn't suggest it.
lots of tapeAlright, so. I've been getting bored with my current dalmation-dotted controller and am thinking about taking on a harder task. I've got plans to have a controller that's completely white on the front side, and then on the back it would be a lime green, white, and a bit of black form of plaid. Kind of something like this, only it would be more spaced out with more white and more rectangular blocks instead of completely squared.
Thing is, I'm gonna need more than just spraypaint to do this. I'm probably going to need some permanent felts with very sharp tips and whatnot. Anyone have any ideas on what markers or anything would be good, or am I going to have to use tape and create the lines that way and spray it anyway?
The rubber on the sticks rubs offWhy is the C stick still yellow?
looks real nice man, just a couple of things like the paint has the shape of the tape making it look obvious but i guess that kind of adds to the style, and the buttons are going to wear off really messin up the cool look of the controller =/ but real nice man, i like it alot
Well it seems to me from the glare of the camera on the buttons (probably because of the clear coat), his buttons will be fine.and the buttons are going to wear off really messin up the cool look of the controller =/
