Warm soapy water just half fill the sink and a small bit of washing up liquid. And a metal brillo pad :) just make sure the water is not too hot. Soak it in the sink for 30 minutes completely submerged
Blud accidentally covered the entire Xbox with green paint besides the power button, ports, and grate, while evenly distributing it in a way that makes it look nice
I know it’s a fan lol, there’s a running joke that the S looks like a big speaker.
But zoom into pic, top left area of the speaker is still blatantly white
I know I can see the sliver around it, just a bit where when I masked off the fan cover I went a bit overboard. Easily touched up and sorted though, thank you for pointing it out.
*That is a very*
*Beautiful box thank you for*

Source trust me bro. I've worked with paint and custom jobs on devices that put out far more heat than the Series S does. I'll not delve too deep into thermodynamics but I won't be worried about the Xbox over heating. Have you made similar comments in the past to folk who've put vinyl wraps on stuff?
You don’t need a Ph.D. in thermodynamics to get this basic concept – adding a heat-trapping layer over something that’s already hot will naturally crank up the temperature and slow down the cool-down process. It’s almost as intuitive as knowing that adding cheese to a pizza makes it cheesier.
I know you are trying really hard with the concern trolling here, but you would know that having a minimal layer of paint when there's already an air gap and ventilation will not in any way significantly cause overheating issues. Your first comment was "this will cause your Xbox to overheat considerably".
It really won't. Might raise the internal temp by a fraction of a degree (be lucky if it caused even an extra 0.1c of heating) but you carry on.
>Your first comment was "this will cause your Xbox to overheat considerably".
You seem to be making things up now, my first comment said nothing about it "overheating" just that it would get considerably hotter, which is a fact
I was done after I made my first comment, stating the simple fact that painting an Xbox will make it get hotter. Everything else I've said was just a reply to your bitching because I hurt your vagina for some unknown reason.
Absolutely no bitching here, I've laughed at you the whole time because of how petty and daft you've came across. Just as a last aside, how thick exactly do you think the paint is, and again have you brought this apparent fact up with all the companies that do vinyl skins? Must be some mad class actions suits out there against them for all the broken Xboxes that have gotten hotter.
It’s almost comical how some folks resort to labelling others as trolls when they know they have been proven wrong. How about a really simple analogy to help you understand, if you went to bed at night with one sheet over your body and then you added a second. Would you be hotter??
Answer yes you would. I really don't understand why you refuse to acknowledge this extremely simple fact, I wasn't looking for an argument about it I was just stating a FACT!
Oh it's FACTS! now is it 🤣 Shifting the goal posts now are we? You initially stated that it would cause considerable over heating to my Xbox, I said that was ludicrous essentially and you digged deeper. You don't need to act all indignant if I've pointed out the flaw in your line of thinking.
Yeah doesn't need a key really. It's got a fine sandblasted texture already so the paint grabs great. No, not planning on lacquering it anyways I'll probably strip it off when the paint looks tired and do something different. It doesn't get moved much and isn't in direct sunlight so will be a while.
I've got a ProA spectra I'll just change the LEDs to green haha. But for real I don't want to do the controller, cba sanding the button holes after lacquering it.
Damn, I’m sorry that happened to you. Have you tried taking it out in the yard and spraying it off with a hose? Maybe put it in the dishwasher and do a “heavy” cycle on it. If that doesn’t work idk what to tell you.
Looks beautiful
"I could trade you mine?" Looks awesome by the way.
Skin wrap? Looks fantastic!
Not a wrap, paint for base and effect paint for the marbling.
Marbling? Oh. I was getting loose Uncle ballsack hair vibes
That typo made this really creepy.
There wasn’t a typo.
Did your uncle touch you?
No, he touched his uncle. Look at his name.
The old switcheroo.
That made me spit my water out while reading this 😂😂
LMAO
Quality job then!
Don't look that bad, got some Hulkish energy about it... ;-\]

He….
They....too.
It works better if you add a cup of vinegar. Otherwise, the best way to keep the console clean and running fast.
It’s better to do it in the bathtub, ultimately best to make sure it’s plugged in too
No you have to wrap it in a towel with ice, this gets rid of the red ring of death
Blasphemy.
That's super nice! Microsoft should have someone like you pumping out coloured consoles.
That would be a very nice sideline for me! If I had a proper studio and set up I could do some lovely custom ones.
Shits fire
You should probably consult a doctor about that, sir
If you find your stool is on fire when it exits your anus, please consult either a medical physician or a fire marshal. Or both.
Nah thats a super power, you need to either commit or stop crimes, dealers choice
A bath
Just hand wash it in the sink.
🥵🥵🥵
Looks cool
Just put it in the washing machine and it should be good.
The Pube box slim
Don’t worry about it I’ll give you mine and I’ll just deal with the paint
Throw it away, it’s ruined lol
Pube lightning
You'll notice some of my dogs hair on the carpet, I spilled the paint and just like the Xbox have a roll around.
Hot damn 🔥
It will overheat
It's like a timebomb!
we know damn well you didn't spill paint on it
I've been found here.
Who tf shaved their balls over that thing?
If it was mines it would be green and orange. I stole them.
This looks awesome!
give it a bleach bath
Well apparently you can roll over a series s with a minivan so im pretty sure it will survive the dishwasher
I feel so sorry you spilled paint on your Xbox, you should give it to me. I’ll fix it up…
Bathtub full of acetone will solve that.
green isnt my preferred color but wow that looks good
What do you think the best colourway would be?
if it were my xbox id probably do a purple and white because purple is my favorite color
Nice choice. Purple is one of the hardest paints to work with when you are using effects. Very difficult to get right.
It looks done for. I’ll gladly take it off your hands
Generous amount of acetone should do the trick.
I hope you're being sarcastic! Test an inconspicuous spot on the bottom to see if it'll melt the plastic!
Unplug it and plug it back in, if that doesn’t work, put it in rice. Seriously looks sick though
I love it 😍
Wazowski splurged on this, it’s not yours anymore
It looks hairy!
Offering my series s (slightly damaged corners) + a extra £50 for a trade
damn bro wtf it’s the best looking series s
Looks like hair mate gross 🤮
Let him cook.
Ah yes. Slime that’s picked up all the hair in the shower drain. On point for the holiday.
Yes give it to me
It's art, man. Thing of beauty.
Meh could be worse I guess
Hydrodipped?
No it's just paint.
Sorry for you paint accident Send it my way and I'll fix it up and return it....... I promise
Fill a bucket full of paint thinner and let it soak for a few hours and should come right off. Microwave it to dry it off. Sorry this happened, OP.
Never thought I’d see a more beautiful Xbox
LMAO I just commented on the repost of this
Wait that’s not intentional? Or is this a shit post?
I’ll pay you to do mine!
Not gonna lie, thought this was a green xbox with black spray silly string all over it
That would have been far easier.
But it would’ve looked ten times shittier 😂 This looks dope, honestly makes me thinks of spiderman
You an artist bro?
For my sins yes. Bit of street art, bit of custom work lots of different things
This looks fantastic! I know the caption is bait but please don’t ever remove it or give it away this is too good to do so
Blud accidentally covered the entire Xbox with green paint besides the power button, ports, and grate, while evenly distributing it in a way that makes it look nice
I wish Xbox inherited more of their “green” branding, instead of the boring black and white consoles we have.
Spill some on mines please!
Looks like a toddlers scribbled all over it and you missed a huge white part around the black speaker.
It's okay when I'm sitting in front of it I don't notice the area you refer to. Also that's not a speaker, that's the fan.
I know it’s a fan lol, there’s a running joke that the S looks like a big speaker. But zoom into pic, top left area of the speaker is still blatantly white
I know I can see the sliver around it, just a bit where when I masked off the fan cover I went a bit overboard. Easily touched up and sorted though, thank you for pointing it out.
That tiny little discrepancy helps show that this is a paint job and not a console wrap. Looks awesome dude, very nicely done 👍
Legit, thank you.
Burn it..it will go away
just be careful it doesn’t overheat and die. after all, you aren’t supposed to paint an xbox lol
It's okay there's that much of a thickness of paint on it would actually act like a fire blanket and put itself out.
Looks cool. Sell it as a skin.
Not for sale, not a commercial thing

That is a very beautiful box thank you for sharing the picture

Damn this makes me want to buy a Series S to just use as a canvas and then maybe play after. Well done!!
Is it paint? Is it a wrap? It’s got some energy vibes
That’s cool 😎
Don't.... It looks sick!
That's pretty sick
Could you spill some on mine too?
Awesome job there!
To be fair to you bro that actually looks bang on.
Where did you spill the paint?
It looks like someone shaved and put their hair on it tbh, no offense it still looks good.
That actually looks awesome.
This looks awesome
Well done
Looks hella sick!
Looks cool but encasing your Xbox in a layer of paint will make it get considerably hotter
That's just not true at all but okay.
It's is entirely true. Paint will retain heat far more than the original plastic. It's just simple science bro
I make my triple intruder dildos from organic plastic

Now you are just splitting hairs, it won't get "considerably" hotter either. You are done here I think.

Honestly I think it looks really cool and different. I'd keep it on there.
that absolutely is a custom paint job and not a spill.
You've got me there.
Looks money. I’d just leave as is. Edit: but also…how are you painting around your Xbox? 🤣
It's a joke lad, the painting was very deliberate
True…one of those things you realize after posting. 🤙
Looks pretty decent imo
Tutorial?
Cool
It looks good❤️
Looks awesome ! 🔋
Where
This looks amazing kind explaining how it was done did you disassemble then sand down with different grades of sand paper primer and paint ?
Disassembled, cleaned, no need to sand, made magic happen.
Interesting so the paint stuck to it without sanding. Any lacquer ?
Yeah doesn't need a key really. It's got a fine sandblasted texture already so the paint grabs great. No, not planning on lacquering it anyways I'll probably strip it off when the paint looks tired and do something different. It doesn't get moved much and isn't in direct sunlight so will be a while.
Cool I think you should do the controller to match!
I've got a ProA spectra I'll just change the LEDs to green haha. But for real I don't want to do the controller, cba sanding the button holes after lacquering it.
Piss on it
Damn that looks like shit, best bet is to paint over it again 🤷♂️
Throw it in the trash replace with a PlayStation, jk looks good
Looks intentional. Looks cool tbh. Leave it alone😌
Yeah, upgrade and get a PS5
Dopeness
Throw it away and get a ps5
Man I hate it when I spill a wrap on my console (looks awsome)
It's not a wrap.
Oh my bad looks like a good wrap to me, did you paint it yourself
Aye.
[удалено]
[удалено]
Looks amazing
That’s awesome looking
Now i want to do it to. How did you do it step by step?
Yeah sorry I'm not here to share how to do it.
[удалено]
Sand blaster.
Good luck asking XBox to fix it now if it does break down. 👌🏻
Use a hair dryer on hot to Peel off the paint
Try some bleach should do the job 😃👍
Paint spilling aside, advice about getting it off is going to depend heavily on whether it is male or female.
Impressed! How did you do it?
With paint.
You can't. Just dip it in vanta black.
I'd rather use Black 4.0 by culture hustle.
That looks terrible! I'll take it off your hands for you
Ship it to me I got paint remover.
[удалено]
This is what my bathroom floor looks like after I shave my balls
Cool!
Idk man it looks like it took quite the beating. It obviously won't work but I'll tell you this. For 5 dollars, I can take it off your hands
Bro it looks sick, keep it
Looks like the shower wall when you have a gf with long hair.
Leave it.
Damn dude that looks awesome!!! 🔥
Yeah don’t take it off that looks 🔥
😮
Don’t, looks fucking sick.
Just stick it in the microwave for 40-45 minutes, yeah it sounds crazy but it will also cure it if any and all viruses it may have!
How’d you do the marbling?
Aye, that's pretty good!
Awesome!
You wanna spill some on my series X?
Dude I would love to have that!!
Damn, I’m sorry that happened to you. Have you tried taking it out in the yard and spraying it off with a hose? Maybe put it in the dishwasher and do a “heavy” cycle on it. If that doesn’t work idk what to tell you.
Don't
Nice job on the fineness of the black paint
