Painting the P800 |

hi all, seems like everybody are painting their p800 nowadays, to be honest I wanted to do a for ages, but I just dont have the knowledge painting stuff, and of course I didnt wanna risk mess up my loving p800, but now I have got my hands of an extra case, and especially seeing all the peeps here who had painted their phone have done such a GREAT JOB, I wanna do it even more now. please the people who knows about painted the phones, share your knowledge here. Here are a few things I'd like to know for a start:-
1. What paint to use and where can they be found?
2. What kinda glue to use when sticking the "bits" back on the phone? (I've take the p800 a part myself, and I know the earpiece and the blue part on the ir side are glued on)
p.s. please try to post a pic as well as telling us which paint/effect you used so we know which paint looks like what.
Cheers all!! |

A bit too girly for me! No offence Mixin. I like the look of Tranquil's P800 i npiano black...got to be the best IMHO. Thanks Masseur!

I posted MixiN's link more for the "how to" rather than the colour, which also would not be high on my list either

oh, in that case gloss. I hate matt black and its the one thing I don't like about the black T630
I assume you have seen tranquil's black P800? which does look nice in gloss

No pastels
Other than that I suppose anything goes...... I'd probably want a stylish dark (very dark) burgundy red myself.... but I dun have a P800 to begin with
