sony finish

Not really regarding Car Modeling but this is a good forum for paint little things. I want to know of any of you pro painters know a paint that will match or come close to the paint on this MiniDisc's buttons? This is very important. Thanks!!!!

Re: sony finish

Most paints won't be durable enough to withstand the constant use. You'd be best to have them electroplated it you want it shiny. For solid colours a topcoat of two part epoxy urethane is the only thing that is likely to be tough enough.

Re: sony finish

I'm most concerned with the appearance of the finish. After I paint it, it will be in a case so there will be very little contact because I have a remote for it. I just really want the buttons to look OEM. I'm also looking toward a black Gameboy SP finish (semi-matte finish) for the unit excluding the buttons. What about vinyl dye, will that do the trick?
