the process is long and drawn out and you need to totally strip the book first and then sand all the bits that are to be painted smooth the start with an undercoat and it should take a few layers of the top coat to get it right but you will need to sand inbetween layers to get it smooth again and when the finnish is to your liking you need to use clear sealent to stop the colour comming off under normal use. It took me 4 weeks to compleate my 540c and 8 coats of paint then 3 coats of sealant. Victoria. -- -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
