Corsair K70 Paint?

[DatProJoe]

I chipped some of the metal off of my K70 and was wondering if there was a way to paint over w/ the same color as the rest of the keyboard and what color that would be? I don't mind if it looks inconsistent w/ the rest of the keyboard I =just want it to be colored again D:

 

Any help would be much appreciated

Thanks

 

P.S Sorry for the small and simple post

It's not paint on the k70. It's brushed aluminum with what I believe is a dye to give it color.

So... Is there a way for me to reproduce the colour?

If I'm not mistaken, the k70 has an anodized brushed aluminum finish. If you scratched that, I don't think it's possible to fix and have it look like the rest of the board. You could disassemble the board so you just have the aluminum plate and paint that, or you could try to match a paint to the color of the plate and delicately try to cover up the scratch.

Your best bet would be to use a paint marker to just touch it up as mentioned it'a dyed into the brushed aluminum unless you want to tear it down and just repaint it, which would lose that brushed aluminum look.
