How to paint an Xbox 360 Controller in 5 Steps!

In this tutorial, I will show you how to simply paint your xbox 360 controller. For this, you will need the following things:

1) Torx T8 security screwdriver (MUST BE LONG ENOUGH TO FIT IN THE CONTROLLER)
2) Tape (painter's, preferably)
3) String, and a well- ventilated place to hang the controller
4) Spray paint (Preferably Krylon Fusion)
5) Razor, or a small knife
6) Krylon Clear Finish spray (Optional)
7) An Idea!

Where to buy

Torx Screwdriver:

http://www.amazon.com/Screwdriver-Security-360-Wireless-Controller-Disassembl...

OR

Just go to Ace Hardware or Home Depot

Krylon Fusion spray paint:

Any store mentioned on Krylon's "Where to Buy" Page should be good.

BUT, not all the stores listed online necessarily have the colors/ textures you need.




PLEASE don't hesitate to ask a question. I will more than likely answer it within a few hours, to the best of my ability.

Where did u get the torx?

[fbeetleson]

@sfgiants33doude you can likely find them at an electronics store, or order them off of Amazon. Maybe even a local hardware store.

Can I ask: can you paint on a black controller.?

[fbeetleson]

@horill123 you can, but my guess is that you will need more paint.

[Ung0dlySkillz3590]

cant you just get a small paint brush and paint it or no?

[xSOUNDWAVE56x]

@horill123 i believe so, not that difficult though... that rhymed

[horill123]

@xSOUNDWAVE56x so, i have to sand the whole controller if for example i wanna paint it blue?

[xSOUNDWAVE56x]

@horill123 if you want a base coat of black then you're set if not then sand it and use what ever
