I posted this guide in the comments section on my post on /r/smashbros , just in case anyone is interested.


Take apart the controller, obviously, and separate the top and bottom shells. Use a tri-wing screwdriver, I found mine on amazon for less than a dollar (shipping included, the price is subject to go up). I've read about people using a small phillips screw driver, and sort of forcing the screws to turn. If that works for you, great. I wouldn't try it, though. Why damage the screws when you can do it the right way?

  1. Sand the shells down. I used 220 sandpaper, higher grit would be better. This gets rid of Nintendo's top coat, and allows the paint to fuse to the plastic better.

  2. Wash the shells with soap and water. This'll get rid of all of the dust from sanding, and also make sure you're not painting on top of any sweat or dirt.

  3. Primer? I didn't use any because the spray paint I had is designed for plastic and doesn't require primer. Unless you have this kind of spray paint, you'll need a primer.

  4. Spray Paint. I did 2 coats of red. Keep the bottle a good distance from the controller and it'll turn out good.

  5. Clear Coat it. I bought a clear coat designed for plastic. I actually wish the finish was a little different, but it worked perfectly for what I needed it to do. The clear coat will protect the paint from damaging. So if you drop it, the idea is the clear coat might get scuffed but the paint won't chip. (Also other obvious protection from aging etc. )

  6. Let it dry for as long as you can wait. Honestly, 2-3 days is ideal. It may feel dry, but it's not. The paint takes a long time to set. You might even be able to use it a few hours after painting it, but I promise you it'll turn out better if you let it dry for a couple of days. I was really anxious to take the picture, so I let it dry from morning to night and then put it together. I took the pic, and put it in a well ventilated and cool temperature room of my house. There it will dry for a couple of days before I am ready to let my friends play with it.

    Good luck and post pictures! /r/customcontrollers & /r/smashbros

i dont think you need any liquid sander, i'd just was the case with soap and water, dry well then wipe down with isopropyl alcohol.

Hit it with a plastic primer (white so you dont need as much paint to cover up the black. this will also help smooth out the texture so you get a smoother shinier finish

get some krylon fusion paint (its maid for plastic specifically) and spray it. it should already be pretty smooth and glossy if you want to got a step further get a spray on clearcoat gloss http://www.amazon.com/Krylon-2444-Fusion-Plastic-Clear/dp/B001TNMWBM you can add a couple layers of this to help protect the paint give you a super glossy finish.

Yes, there are topcoats specifically for blocking UV. Here's an example.

Make sure it the FUSION kind. I have not put this items in my tank yet, but I have read on multiple forums that the ingredients in the Fusion spray become inert after the cure for 48 hours. I've seen fish keepers use this spray in their aquarium on separators before too. I'm letting mine cure for longer than that just to be on the same side.

I also did two coats on everything!

You could also seal it with a clear spray when you're done, just to be sure.

i haven't tried it myself but my research found this to be aquarium safe.

Thank you! Yes, I use acrylics and then I spray it all with a Clear coat spray paint for plastic. I personally recommend this one if you are intersted.

n_n No problem! I hope you have fun. Please please please share how you paint him when you get to him.
