Laying of Hands- EP Booster

[diablochris6]

This is one of pickdropper's The Laying of Hands EP-booster PCBs. I enjoy the sound coming out of this thing more than I thought I would out of a boost. I used a silver spray paint, but even after letting it sit for a week, it would still smudge and flake as I put the circuit in the box. Oh well, I won't be using that paint again.

What paint did you use? I've found that some metallic finishes have to be sprayed in thin, spaced out coats or they never dry fully.

It was a can of Rustoleum. It isn't a very thick coat, but I didn't expect to leave a thumbprint in it a week after I sprayed it. I haven't had a problem with other colors of theirs.

Ive had similar experiences with that brand. I painted one of my first builds with it, 3 years ago, and its still soft! I recommend the Duplicolor brand, from an auto parts store. Never had any trouble with it.
