automotive paint will work best...but plastic model enamel will work the best...primer is a good thing to have on the base.

start with a less fine sand paper, then move to a very fine sand paper to make the surface really smooth


i forgot about model paints, i use to build those things all the time, my two favs were the 80 transam turbo and the 72 camaro phase 3 :)

tbh, unless you're really skilled @ painting, dont try to go in too much details

what id do is primer>first layer>use paint tape to mask>second layer>and then some kind of nice finish on it so its not sticky (or put an other layer) but just going for hand painted wont give the result you think it will

also using plastic spray paint is a must

Why the ones in poor condition? I think it would be sweet if the controllers are still working properly.
