Post by: pax on May 19, 2008, 12:06:41 PM

ok i know this may be in the wrong section but what it is, is that im purchasing a black psp trim for the phat psp from a modder for hire. he showed me some pictures of the sprayed psp trim and i just wanted to know what you thought of the paint job. i've never painted the trim before so i dont really know what it looks like so i just wanted your opinions. i posted in the spray painting section and noone has replied so im posting here.

first buy a new trim. then just get black primer paint (matte black). let it dry and do it again about 4 times just to be sure. then last get some clear gloss and gloss over like twice and you'll be set.

exact same thing here, buy a new trim and do it urself, use primer to hold the paint longer and prevent it from coming off, then spray it and let it dry, u might want to keep it near a moderately hot light to let the paint go smooth, redo this around 3 or 4 times or so.

Good luck  :hifive:

try to use much finer sand paper like 600 grade it will turn out much smother then just spray paint it. when painting don't be stiff and hold it over one spot try to evenly spray the whole thing with about 5-10 strokes. if you mess up wait until it drys then sand it down and redo

When ever spray painting, buy one that is used for plastics or it wont stick. And add a few layers as some one stated above
