PlastiDip Commodore 64 - How to Spray Paint: Techniques and Best Practices

Not a fan, but to each their own. But, I would be interested in a paint job that matched the original plastic coloring (versus doing a retrobrite). I'm sure it wouldn't look 100% the same but close enough to make me happy.

 

Actually getting my TRS-80 repainted (via @Texas Tandy restorations ) which is a nice alternative to dealing with the yellowing.

Say hello to our friends in Poland.

I'm not saying their paint is superior to anything else, or that they did the ultimate colour matching, but they got quite a lot of media coverage the other week.

I dont recognize the user account, so I cannot say if you are or not :) but all trs-80 are a grey or that painted white so we dont get that "yellowing" other brands get
