I've been looking around here for a thread about this and I haven't found one,  so here goes nothing.

I want to try and paint both my gba classic, and gba sp white, but I can't seem to find a direct answer on what paint to use for both/the proper way to go about painting them. I'm totally new to gear modification, so I'd like top be pointed in the right direction.

Thanks!

just take out all the circuitry, mask all the stuff you don't want to paint with painter's tape, and use plastic-specific paint. make sure you clean the case before you paint (top rack of dishwasher, soapy hot water and a toothbrush, etc) and clearcoat is a good idea, but imo glossy clearcoat/paint looks like garbage on gameboys.

and take your time, a bad paintjob is a rushed paintjob. hope this helps!

i think there was a thread about painting a gba from the inside, i'll have to find it for ya

edit: here it is
