For the stenciling process you don’t have to push as hard as him as you’ll most likely be redoing your stencil multiple times and if you mess up it’ll leave scratches. Also the tape’s pretty fragile so you won’t need all that force

thanks for this video! I have a wireless mouse I got from target a little while ago and was trying to decide on how to paint it. I finally figured out what I wanted to do with it, but wasn't sure what kind of paint to use, so this definitely helped! did you ever find out if a matte clear coat works just as well as a glossy clear coat? thanks again!
@snipeyHAHA3 жыл бұрын
matte clear coats work fine. I think you have to get a 2k one by spraymax though. I don't know of any other good matte clears

If I have a white mouse and I just want to make it glossy, can I just sand it, use a primer, and use just the clear coat? I want the glossy texture like a zowie special edition mouse (white ones) if you ever had one of those.

Correct you can just sand it and paint it clear. Never felt a zowie. The texture of clear coat is very smooth. Pretty much no texture

Or some paint might be a bit transparent and won't look right sprayed over black so you would want a lighter grey primer first. Most spray paint should work fine though without primer as long as you sand it good first. Or just use that 2X type of paint I use it works really good.
