ok, so i have a lot of free time this summer and i was thinking of sanding down the housing on a pair of p18's and re painting them the color of my liking. anyone have any thoughts on this? and how different do you think a metal to is to like a plastic one.

When i painted mine, i used this like electron charge paint, it sticks to the metal really good. Pretty sweet. Put on a clear coat, and it stayed on really well.

nope, just cleaned the grease/junk off. You can use primer if you choose.

What are you thinking? Like color, design, what? If you take your time, which it sounds you will/can they should turn out great.

black is too plain, and rasta is just played. Do like pink, or white. White bindings are amazing!

black and rasta will lokk really great with next year thalls
sanding will prolly help the paint to stick more. Ask the guyz at your home hardware and explain them that the metal will go under XTrem condition

If you are going to sand them, use a power grinder with a very fine grit sanding wheel on it. If you are careful, it will get all that extra paint off of there.
