Interesting. I've been thinking about this. You can get a pretty good finish with Plastidip. The tricky bit is where there are illuminated bits. I was looking at CNC laser etching the plastidip off in those areas, but there's never enough time.

Their work looks good. I'd definitely consider sending bits to them.

I reckon that could be Cromas EROS paint over a black primer.
I have a CO2 laser at work for cutting/etching... hmmmmmmmmmm.

Re: Soft touch plastics refurbishment.
How does that compare to plastidip?

If I we're in the UK (aside from not being in a f'ing lockdown) I'd remove and post the + - buttons from my climate control. Can't lose really, I'm going to have to buy a good used unit (non RS6) for the buttons anyway if it didnt work out.
