    Default Mouse Painting: Which color?

    Hey all. My current mod is just painting a Mickeysoft mouse. But I can't decide what color to use. My choices are: Primer, Ford Blue, Brass or somehow mix them.

    Here is the mouse disassembled and primered.


    Test fit of the pieces.


    Ford Blue paint. (It's engine block paint)


    The Brass paint.


    Thanks, Short Modder.

    might help if instead of showing us the cans you showed us what the paint looked like on a test piece.
    Metals can look good or REALLY bad.
    Might help too if you told us about the machine it was going with. What color is it?

    Well the mouse isn't going with a machine. I just wanted to take up others' opinion to see. I know it might be the wrong type of paint, but it's what I have right now.

    I hate HP. Yet here I am, using a HP G60 Series notebook with an HP desktop sitting at my home desk.... But the best part is that it was all free. Now slowly switching to Dell stuff!

    The brass buttons sound good, but would a fingerprint size brass circle look good?
