Painting an Xbox 360 faceplate in 3 easy steps |
Ó
While some of you have either A) already done this yourself, or B) at least already know the concept of how to do it, Pavel Dolgov of Xbox 360 artistry fame has drafted three easy steps for newbies to mod an Xbox 360 faceplate:
- Preparation: sand the surface with fine 220A sandpaper, then mask the power button with vinyl application tape and cut the shape of the ring of light and the power symbol with X-acto knife (you can mask the infrared port before sanding). Prime with 4000 series base coat sealer (from airbrush paints) and let dry.
- Painting: it's all yours, make styled graphics with aerosol spray or paint cool art with acrylic paints.
- Finishing: apply 2-3 coats of Krylon Clear Glaze in a steady motion 10-12 inches from surface in well ventilated area. Make sure you wear filter mask. After 2 hours remove the tape, clean around the button and enjoy your artwork!
