Here in Canada and the US its a popular paint brand, I've used semi-gloss clear on my comp case and it turned out pretty good, but I have regular-gloss so well see how it goes. I test fitted the buttons, the PS, X and /\ buttons stick a bit, but the paint is still a bit sticky, the problem might go away in the morning when fully dry, hopefully...

Yea ur using rust oleum i believe right the brand give it like 24 hours and it should dry well..

Would this work as a clear coat?

I bought Krylon Fusion along with it.

Sorry for thread hijack.

Looks very slick. What are you planning to do with the holes in the buttons?

alman101 · « **Reply #40 on:** October 31, 2009, 04:43:53 PM »

puttin LEDs in the buttons, purple, green, red, and blue. Hope they come monday or tuesday.

Heres some progress puttin LEDs in the sides, all 22 are glued, doing the fun part right now, wiring the little :censored:s.

alman101 · « **Reply #41 on:** October 31, 2009, 09:13:23 PM »

Wooooooooo did some wiring tonight...

the sexiest controller yet... and still more to come.....

Kitsune · « **Reply #42 on:** October 31, 2009, 09:56:07 PM »

Dude you must've blown a good 50 bucks on LEDs alone..

You're my hero (♥_♥)

GhoSt · « **Reply #43 on:** October 31, 2009, 10:34:30 PM »

wow, looks nice. My advice Watch the solder joints to the pcb, looks a little dogey. Do the leds get in the way when you are holding it?

looking sweet anyway, can't wait to see what else you come up with.

alman101 · « **Reply #44 on:** November 01, 2009, 05:34:32 AM »

Meh I had around 75 LEDs left over from the other mod-off, cost me about $20 for 200 LEDs with shipping and crap from the UK. I spent $30 last week on the LEDs coming soon. there will be a RGB in the PS button instead of the blue one in now. Also might add one to shine the USB port, and then the 4 buttons, pretty much done after that. Last night took me 4 hours and glue and wire all 22 LEDs in the sides.

just waitin on Phenoptix and sickmods.net for the goods lol...

i tried adding a charging led to my dualshock (on the usb slot) but the power from the usb made the led way to hot and kept melting the glue lol, nice looking pad alman ive been thinking for days how to mod my pad up higher to compete with you lol, im not bothered about the other console its a ps3 mod war to me

alman101 · « **Reply #46 on:** November 01, 2009, 05:51:55 AM »

meh theres some good 360 controllers out there, and maybe try to use electrical tape instead of glue...

I actually have an idea to light up the d-pad....

Controller mod-off Part 4

blackburn · « **Reply #54 on:** November 01, 2009, 11:57:51 AM »

looks good sitting down, but isnt it a little uncomforable with all the LEDs poking into your hands?

alman101 · « **Reply #55 on:** November 01, 2009, 12:13:28 PM »

the LEDs stick out about a millimeter, barely anything at all, and they don't get hot at all. It doesnt make it uncomfortable at all, they really have no effect.

blackburn · « **Reply #56 on:** November 01, 2009, 02:21:38 PM »

sweet, id carry that thing around and use it as a flashlight... or maybe just a room decoration haha

Kitsune · « **Reply #57 on:** November 01, 2009, 03:15:04 PM »

If all else fails, a $100 paper weight. :P

alman101 · « **Reply #58 on:** November 01, 2009, 07:06:06 PM »
