Can anyone coat my mod!

[paulbee]

Hi all
I've got an octopus that has a couple of chips on the corners and wondered if anyone could fill and coat with something for me please?
Cheers
Paul

Why you just don't buy some wood filler,plastikote spray and do it yourself,it would be much easier and cheaper

Thanks @shale84
Is plastikote easy to use then? I'm not the most skilled!
Also is plastikote on for mods?

You will need to prep, mask spray after you have filled and sanded

If you have never done this before...don't

I've never done it but have a cracked one to practice on. Can I ask why you say don't?

Refinishing a mod is one of the hardest things to get right

You need to strip the mod really as the paint will go every where unless you can mask the panel and buttons so no paint can get past without leaving lines

You also need to sand and fill the area so the paint adheres to the mod ( a mechanical bond)

The mod must be suspended so the paint will go on evenly all over the mod

Then the paint must be up to the job and not wear off most mods are anodised

What is the mod made of?

If it's metal you can take time sanding it down smooth and maybe get away with multiple coats of primer/resanding and paint in the end, I've done it a few times

But it looks like it might be a 3d printed one?
