Keyboard & Mouse Painting

I thought it would be cool to have some customized hardware to go with the CPU window from the previous post, so I grabbed some automotive primer and paint for a fun, shiny look.

First, everything was sanded down and taped off.


Several coats later, everything looks shiny.

 

A clear protective coat will stop the paint from rubbing off, which is especially important on the mouse as it will rub against hands frequently.

The keyboard and mouse are reassembled to make a nice, matching pair. The keyboard's LEDs have been swapped for blue to match the CPU case.
