Title: Painting my trim
Post by: alentris on January 16, 2009, 04:32:07 PM

I have a couple of questions about painting my psp's trim:

1. Will Krylon Fusion be suitable for the paint job?
2. Will I need to do a clear coat after the Krylon?
3. How do you paint around the power/wifi/umd switches?

Thanks for the help, but seriously??? what about the large yellow part of the power switch? how would you be able to pry that thing out ?

there is a clip from the  power button that goes threw the yellow piece, just use some small tweezers or something and it should pop out easy.( forgive the typos im tired and lazy :) )

but make sure remove or atleast unclip the power board first, or youl risk a broken power switch. if you need use the psp disassembly tutorial in the tut's section.

Don't worry, this will be my fourth full psp dissassembly (I've pretty much got it down by heart.)
