N95 - covers

7 replies · 2,614 views · Started 17 May 2007

ok this may sound like a silly question. I have been looking covers for the N95 in different colours to the norm, so far i havn't found any but i was wondering if anyone knew of any coming out or if maybe the N80 cover would fit?
Thankies :tongue:

There are none that I'm aware of and the shape of the N80 is a different size to that of the N95, so that wouldnt work.

Give it a bit more time and there will be something...

There are three different coloured silicone cases thats availabe on eBay.

yeah got a silicone cover but they just don't look as good. I suppose i will have to be patient... something i'm not very good at 🙄

You could buy a replacement case from blueunplugged and paint it yourself before fitting it. Should be a simple job with some wet and dry and plastic primer.

Wet and dry is kind of like sandpaper but finer. Dry is slightly rougher to take the paint off with then wet (which you use after dampening with water) is smoother and gives a nice key (visibly smoothed but rough enough for paint to take).
Then get a can of plastic primer and spray over the case (hold the can about 20-30 cm away and spray sweeping motions to gradually coat the case).
Leave that a few hours to dry then do the same paint process with the colour spray. Be careful not to move too slowly as it will cause drips to form. Just keep doing gentle sweeps over the case to build up the paint

This is a general guide to spraying any plastic (I've done car parts, playstation controllers and computer plastics all like this).
