This is great stuff... Thanks Alot! Don't forget to check out the fourms, alot of possible pitfalls are mentioned there. Still, if anyone else has anything, that would be great. Got to make sure I cover all the bases, and you can't rely on one souce for that.

Hey, in all the painting stuff I've seen, they never paint the keys. That's great if you have a black keyboard, but if it's beige, well, that doesn't go well with just about anything. Is there anyone who's painted the keys on their keyboard?

Send a message via AIM to wschino
I would paint the keys if I didn't have to look down when typing.

there could be stencils for the keyboard so you paint and then use the stencils but with so many keys and in different places on each keyboard it could get confusing....

What do you think of this idea- I paint the keys with all the layers except the clearcoat, then Exacto knife white letters and carefully put them on the keys while the paint drys. Then spraypaint the clearcoat on. You think that might work?
