if i had the time i would take the whole machine apart, take the case and doors and
top to a good auto paint shop and have it painted Midnight Blue.. and i would call
it BigBlue.. :-)
i would use the paint they use on these flex bumpers.. they can also give it a
satin finish..
i've always wanted to replicate the nice satin finish in other than "Bankers Heart
Black" (a passing reference to the black marble sculpture on the corner of
california and kearny streets in SF.. what was once the BofA plaza.. :-)
