I have a redragon keyboard. I don't know the model number, think KURA or something, and a redragon M801 mouse. How would I go about painting the red blue? I love the mouse and really want to paint it. Here are pictures

It depends what your going to paint but in any case your going to want to take part the keyboard and mask off areas that you want painted. As always proper prep and painting steps should be followed, for mice and keyboards I usually recommend to do a clear coat to give it a little more durability since it will come in contact with abrasion and oil from skin. 

 

If you want more in depth steps for painting I have a guide in the Modding FAQ that covers it under General Painting:

Lots of tape or completely disassemble the keyboard and mouse, then paint the red parts with plasti-dip or some other spray paint.

I was going to paint everything that was red, blue. The keyboard has 7 color LEDs, Including blue, and the mouse is RGB, so that's not a problem. I don't know how I feel about taking it apart. Should I just mask a lot?

Masking is possible but it won't be as nice especially with the edges where the red might show past the painted surface. It would also be more difficult than taking the piece apart and painting them all together. 

 

Just remember also that the red buttons on the keyboard will also lose the markings on them if you paint it.
