Spray painting Poker II
« on: Thu, 05 September 2013, 04:13:06 »
Hi!

My Poker II is on the way, and one of the first things i would like to do is painting the stock case, white or maybe red.

I guess the the best way to do it is with spray paint, but i don't want it to loose the case texture or it becoming sticky or glossy, also i wanna make sure the coverage is good and consistent.

Any stories, guides or advices on this?

Thanks!  :D

I never sprayed a keyboard but from general experience:

* buy quality color (even if it costs 20$+)
* keep a good amount of distance to the object you are spraying, otherwise you will get too much paint on one spot
* it is better to spray it three times with a thin layer of paint than one time with a thick layer of paint
* use a carton or something like that so you won't color all your surroundings and care for ventilation and fresh air
* don't get impatient and wait for it to really dry before touching it / adding another layer of paint

Hope this helps and I'm really curious for the outcome!
