Colorizing My TI-83 Plus
I'm thinking about coloring it, perhaps a white or a dark blue...i want to paint it and then put some sort of gloss on it so it looks similar to the finish of a car or like an ibook.
Can anyone help me out, or at least give me suggestions?

(i havn't but i'm not as fanatic as some)
What color is it? You may want to prime it first...and I suggest using Testor's spray paint (made for plastic.) They also have gloss coats (similar to clear coats found on cars.
Good luck...just gave me an idea as well.
Time to find an old scientific calc to see how it looks...
<strong>How do you expect to know which function key is which if you over-paint the whole thing? Those key mappings are why you paid for more than a TI-30 in the first place. Maybe you shold just snazz-out the back and the cover.</strong><hr></blockquote>
Now I thought about this and it does put me in a difficult situation...i am thinking either trying find a stencil that small so i can paint them back
i could also put a small piece of tape over it but that would greatly decrease the aestheticness of it
last and final idea was to just take a picture of it and then past the picture onto the inside of the case and then just look off of that, because the buttons won't be painted.
i know this is really a pointless idea, but seriously, who else will have a pimp'n calc like mine
PS-after this, i think i'll put 20's on it (spraypaint the rubber gromits silver) and lower it (haha no idea)
