How to paint on an iPhone case?
I just want to write love on a case but what should I use? Like paint? Or sharpie? Will sharpie rub off?
If you want it to look good and last I would use the following:
Plastic Primer
Spray paint or acrylic paint
Plastic primer
Some tape to seal the parts you don't want to paint
280 sand paper
400 sand paper
Precision cutting knife set or razor blades
And Your mobile phone of choice to paint
1) tape off any parts you don't want to get paint on(or make yourself a stencil) using tape and the exacto knife(or razor blade)
2)Sand down the area you want to paint in this order
280 grain
400 grain
This with give the paint something to hang on to.
3)Spray on a thin coat of primer and let dry completely (read label)
4)Paint your masterpiece and let dry completely.
5) optional sealing coat to make it last.
- Will putting stickers on my iphone 5 damage it or peel off the paint? I was looking at iphone skins and they are so expensive. So i was considering printing my own skin with sticker paper, and then putting it on my iphone. Would this damage the phone?
- Will acrylic paint stick to a shiny iphone case? It is some sort of shiny case (not plasticy but not metal either) I have no idea what it is but it's a bit shiny, so I sanded it. Will the coat of paint I'm putting on it stay? Even after sanding it was still shiny.
- What's it called when they paint your iphone? What's it called when they paint your iphone a different color? I was wondering because I want to do this to mine. It's something like the one above.
- What paint should I use to customise an iPhone for case? I want to paint the Incredible Hulk on an iPhone case for my older brother for Christmas, but what paint should I use? I've used acrylics before to paint my PS2, but it scratches off so easily and this is something I want to last. Any suggestions or other options I can use?
