Gross.
If companies would stop making stupid glossy electronics, people wouldn't feel the need to resort to this...
That was a macbook?! I thought it was the back of an iPod...
You might want to see it but wouldn't want to hold it; it probably feels terrible. Lines won't be even like any consumer brushed metal object (not sure you can ever sand plastic to feel like brushed metal anyway).
This. I cannot fucking stand the high-gloss finish. It scratches so damned easily. Matte black PS2 and Matte Black 360slim are the two prettiest consoles in console history (IMHO).
I've been kicking around the idea of sanding down my XB1 and PS4's high-gloss sides, and if they don't announce matte versions I can switch to soon, you better believe I'll be doing this too, even if it means bricking the unit if I get sanding dust in bad places.
I guess if you REALLY want to do it to your PS4, you could just take off the HDD cover (the glossy panel) and sand that separately. It comes off to allow you to change the HDD, so if you're going to do it do that.This. I cannot fucking stand the high-gloss finish. It scratches so damned easily.

It won't feel like that, though. You can't make cheap plastic FEEL like aluminium.Those WiiU ones look goddamn beautiful. Almost looks like an HTC One (m8)
It takes a few minutes and a couple dollar Scotch-Brite pad.What a colossal waste of time and money. They don't even look good.
Looks better
It's just a piece of plastic shit anyways... whatever
First thing I'm gonna do is rough up that shine with large grit sandpaper
"Holy crap man, your console doesn't look glossy at all!"It won't feel like that, though. You can't make cheap plastic FEEL like aluminium.
