Does anyone know how to go about painting an old games console with the cheap plastic?

I'm scared because I imagine needing some paint on the thinner side in order to keep the grain of the plastic and so everything goes back together snug.

I'm also worried it'll look like a kid painted it in shop class.

I would say you stunt discussion, but you seem to actually spur discussion. Its off topic drivel that destroys threads, threads that otherwise would have gotten no responses and died (like they are supposed to).
Instead these threads that trigger you, you are effectively keeping them alive.

Makes little sense to me anon.

There, I have given him some golden advice akin to yours.

We are brothers in arms now, ill just go around and do the same in every thread that pops up.
What exactly will it accomplish?
Who knows, but maybe itll affect the board in a way that makes someone like you happy.

> this fucking thread.
It's this simple you cum gargling faggots.
> First ask Google, then ask /diy/. Your question will probably be better received if you do so.
Right there in the fucking sticky, for just this reason. There are countless guides for spraying every console known to man out there. If OP cannot even be bothered to attempt his own research why the fuck should we spoonfeed him? Conversation with others is not born of "hay /diy/ I want to do thing wat do", it is started with "hay /diy/ I want to do thing, guide A suggests this, guide B suggests this, but guide B sounds a little retarded. Have any of you tried this". We help you if you demonstrate you are capable of helping yourself.
> muh triggered this and that.
This. Is fucking. 4chan. Home of the arsehole of the internet. It is not your personal search engine. It is not your hugbox. Get a fucking helmet, or fuck off somewhere nicer.
> b.. but u are just a mad fag who..
No, no, fucking no. There are thousands of other forums, image boards and chat rooms out there. Fuck the fuck off to one of them if this is not what you want. No matter how much you cry about your fee fee's this will not change.

Sage because you are all faggots, this thread needs to die, and I don't want this shit sandwich clogging my view while I go responding to people who are capable of asking a question worth my time to answer.

OP, its twenty fucking eighteen. Learn to use a fucking search engine you dumb cunt.

Well its either be passive aggressive, showing the other poster how stupid he is with his own posts until he angrily outbursts and then larps as someone else.

Or its a "take the bait and yell buzzwords back turning into a pissing match" letting the other poster feel like you have conceded.

Just to let you know I buy them for $1000 and sell them for 10k
You're jealous. 288 horse power. German Corvette.

I own them for three reasons.

1. My favorite Porsche.
2. Women love to fuck me who can afford a Porsche, no questions asked.
3. It's a business. Big ego's, big wallets. No faggots allowed. "YOU".

>Goodbye discussion with other humans...

Do you want social nigteraction or to paint your toy? Didn't you read the sticky? You need information. If you want social interaction buy a cat.

Painting plastic cases is similar to painting automotive interior plastic, and you can use the same paint. Shit goes back to the beige box PC era when owners got bored of smoke and cum stained beige cases.

Go to auto store, select color, clean off your case with alcohol (nothing stronger because solvents can fuck shit up) to remove dust/smoke residue/your mom's dried menses, mask with painters tape (not tan "masking" tape) then (per any spray painting vidya) give it a light coat and let cure per the paint makers instructions.

If you want to see how it will turn out you can spot spray a patch inside your case and let cure.
