painted jogs/knobs/faders

so i painted my jogs and knobs/faders. on the jogs i used 1 coat of primer, 2 1 coat on the back side of them, and about 4-5 light coats on the front. btw, i used satin black and clear. the jogs were sort of a pain to pain. the paint liked to look like an orange peel texture. but by adding thin coats it fixed it. i then put 3 coats of clear on the jogs.

they came out looking pretty nice, and they still work perfect. i had to turn the sensitivity up just a hair.

the only thing that sucks is i lost one of my knobs sometime during the process :disappointed:. also you can still see a slight orange peel texture but only when the light is reflecting off of them. and it actually looks kind of cool.

i still have to scrape some of the paint that dripped down to the silver on the knobs as well.

anyone know where i can order a new silver knob?

Why would you replace them? They look excellent

no i meant buy 1 replacement for the missing knob. but turns out my siters boyfriend found it in his car from when i was in it with my vci.

but yeah they do look real nice. like i said i just have to finish scraping some black that dripped down on them. they do look nice :smiley:

imo the jogs came out great too. the bit of texture actually looks nice, and not tacky at all. like i said you can only see it in the light reflection.

edit: finished scraping off the paint on the knobs. now they look finished.

Very nice!

thanks man. i had to pm ya the thread because iv been telling you i was going to get the job done for quite some time now.
