How to Paint a PS4 Controller (1st and 2nd Generations)

Hi everyone, I made this video a while back waiting for a good time to post it. This tutorial is for the 1st generation and 2nd generation controllers.
The first step of the painting process is disassembly. There are 4 screws on the back of the controller that can be removed with a Philips head screwdriver. After removing them, gently squeeze the sides of the controller as you pry the back piece away from the front piece. Don’t pull too hard though, as there is a ribbon cable connecting the light bar to the motherboard. After removing the ribbon cable, locate the second ribbon cable that connects the touch pad to the motherboard, and disconnect it. Remove the screw holding the motherboard to the front shell, and then take out all of the buttons.
Before painting, make sure to sand all surfaces that will be receiving paint with a fine grit sandpaper (recommended: 220 grit). Prime the surfaces with a plastic primer, and then inspect for bubbles or imperfections (sand them away if you're not satisfied). After the primer has dried, apply the color coats, making sure to follow the directions specified on the back of the paint can. Again, inspect the controller for imperfections, and sand them down if needed. If you sanded anything, be sure to recoat that area with the color paint. Once the paint has dried, use a clear coat that matches the finish of the paint that you used.
Finally, LET THE CONTROLLER DRY FOR 3 DAYS OR MORE, and then reassemble the controller. If you don’t let the controller dry completely, it will be much more likely to get scratched or smudged during the assembly process.
I hope that this tutorial was able to help anyone that desires more out of their boring PS4 controller. Thanks for watching, I hope you enjoyed :)
