i just wanted to drop in and say that the 3 boys i just had serviced by ape are THE BEST work i've had done, and I've had 10+ modded DMGs from pretty much every 'professional' mod service out there.

Yep, I'm totally buying a few of these in a few weeks. I need two whites and a black for sure. I'm kinda interested in some of these other colors two. Probably a yellow for a gameboy I'm working on. Not entirely sure what I'll be buying but I'm buying 3 atleast.

I don't supposed you'd disclose what you used to paint them?

Krylon "X Metals" paint
WHAT. I bought X Metals in purple and sprayed it on a few clear CD cases to test it and didn't get ANYWHERE near that result. Did you spray X Metals alone? And did you paint it on the inside or outside?

You gotta spray them with a primer first. Couple of coats, too.

No, for this effect you definitely want to stay away from primers, especially since primer isn't typically clear.
I stand corrected; I haven't sprayed clear stuff before and was just going off of what I remember from reading Thretris' posts on 8bc many moons ago - thanks for the heads up!

So if no primer, would I just spray it on by itself? I apologize, I've never had to paint anything.
And like I said, when I tried out the purple X metals, it didn't soak into the plastic like I was hoping, it just acted like a regular spray paint and dried on the surface.
