Sand paper, 320 grit so the scratches aren't too deep. |

They have this spary at Wal-Mart (probably other stores too, but thats where I git it) called "Opps!". I used it to remove spray paint on plastics before and it worked great. Didn't fade the paint and mess up the texture. You have to get the water-based one. |

one way i did mine, was to use nail polish remover and cootan balls, to start you have to find a place where the paint is chipping off and rub it and the rest of the buttons for a while and it comes of pretty good |

Great job the paint looks sick and I would like the buttons as long as they felt good and were easy to slide with |
