sweet. on the finished picture, it has somewhat different texture from the one before (right after rubberc coating with 'wet' looking). is that because the rubber coating dried completely on the final picture?

How come you masked all the buttons and ***** rather than disassembling before painting??

Because i tried having it dissasembled the first time... and when you try to reinstall the buttons, there is too much texture material and the buttons rub.... so this seemed to be the best way, and it turned out to work great.
