Is there any chance of getting a mobile version of the site? Using it on a phone is doable now but painful. If it's a matter of programmer time i may be able to help.

I'm wondering if anyone has ever tried to use GooGone to clean the back of the LCD to get rid on the left over stickum when installing a backlight. I've seen several places recommend rubbing alcohol and qtips but that just seems to end up with qtip fuzz stuck to the back. GooGone is fantastic about removing that sticker gunk but I'm wondering if it might damage the screen.

I think the cans I have are Rust-O-Leum. I'm just concerned about the amount of time it's taking to cure.


I love your examples! Especially that black and pink one.

It sounds like you didn't clear coat it when finished. Just get a spray clan of matte or gloss clear coat depending upon what kind of finish you're trying to achieve. After several thin coats of paint have been applied, spray two or three thin coats of clear coat.

You're right. I didn't figure I'd need one. Guess i should do that.

I've just gotten into modding gameboys and am wondering what other people do for painting. I've just uses a spray paint can from Home Depot that said it would work on plastics. Two weeks later the case still has that paint odor and feels kind of sticky though no paint comes off when I touch it.

So other painters, what kind of paint do you use? Do you have problems with the feel of the gameboy after painting?

Might be a strange question, but anyone know where to buy triwing screws? I have a dmg with some philips holding the case together but they tend to get stripped really easily.

I recently added my first backlight to a dmg. Problem is, other than me scratching the lcd badly and killing 4 (and counting apparently) horizontal lines, is that the backlight i got from kitch seems to be to thick and is pushing the screen cover out and almost popping it off. Is this normal or there thinner backlight? I have one coming from asmr that i hope will be better :-/

Hrm... Thanks for the tips but i think h this may be more ambitious than i thought.

Any recommendations for tutorials that get more in depth into wav instruments? Preferably ones that assume I'm clueless.
