Hi im a nooby at this stuff but probably not as much as led modding..lol
Ok i was wondering if theres is a tutorial on how to paint my phat psp trim (a.k.a silver thing around the psp) and i want to paint it to black..
-What kind of paint would i need?
-How would i paint the trim like how would i paint the psp trim thingy without getting paint on the psp faceplates.
- I want to paint the psp trimm black like the original phat psp backplate
[ Example ]

Thanks for reading! :hifive:

i painted my trim with a nicer black than that picture. that picture looks like a matte black maybe enamel. if you simply want it like that then just get spray paint from orchard supply or something. as for mines i used Tamiya modeling paint (metallic black). it turned out like this.

first of all you're not going to want to paint your trim while leaving it on the faceplate. you're going to want to open up your psp till the face plate is off and simply slide the trim off the back plate. then just follow through with how they say to spray paint here and it will turn out cleann.. if you mess up just sand it off and start over. i would recommend primary paint before you paint with the tamiya. then a clear coat.

that picture was a concept psp ;) so it has never been made ;) only on the computer
-
i painted my trim but im having problems with the buttons now they hard to slide anybody know what i can do to solve this problem
-
sand paper lol
-
Make sure and use jewelers files to clean up the opening first
-
ya just use some fine sand paper just a little bit and i use autamotive paint with an airbrush and if you trully wanted to paint the dc plug you prolly could just use painters tape to cover the teo prong things and the prong in themiddle but i dont recomend it and it wouldnt last

This PSP was made and is real, but the only thing about that PSP that is not real is the second analog, the dude simply glued a cap there for the effect. And he well succeeded at that point.

I saw the original post the guy did for this psp. he said he had the trim custom made from somewhere and cost a fortune. wish i could remember where i saw that.
