Got a Logitech Dual Action Controller. The standard colors were boring :( So I spiced it up! Paints used: Metallic Black Krylon (the kind for plastic but with the specks on it) and Satin White Krylon. (The red wasn't used)

prior to painting, all parts taken spart and stuff:

I might add a waterslide decal to where the Logitech logo used to be. The purpose was to find a cheap and quick way to make something more interesting. :D

Mod Lesson: The black metallic paint feels weird on the hands. Kinda like sandpaper...

I used a "Dull" clear coat, (not Gloss...) So it ended up the same, except it waaay smoother. Seemed more durable, too. I didn't want to use a gloss coat, because it picks up fingerprints more, and it wouldn't fit the kind of look I was going for. (I'm doing that for my next mod- my G5 mouse.) But it's drying right now in all it's glory!!!
