Got it primed down to satin black, probably delivering it to him later today

Don't know his method of madness... but im going to see if he can somewhat integrate the colors of the white and blue buttons to save me having to paint all of that

yeah boy that flat black looks dope. But it will really look amazing if you paint it like that picture you posted. and I agree with everybody else when they say PLEASE post pics of this!! Also i was wondering how you're gonna go about labeling the buttons and pads? are you gonna paint the letters on above all the buttons\pads? Or are you gonna use a label maker or something to label the buttons and pads?

Any pics of how this turned out?
Also, are you going to redo the lettering, or you know all the buttons well enough?
my 60 is rusty and needs a paint job. The only thing I'm kind of worried about is the LED clear plastic caps - I guess I can try to pop them out and re-glue them after painting.
