    It's called plasti dip.

    It's a thick spray paint that feels a bit like rubber.

      Do you have direct evidence or a source for that?

        None but I've handled both the net yaruze and plastic dip and they feel the same to me and I can't imagine Sony went with a super expensive process for what was just a PR stunt.

        This anon is trying cerakote which is maybe closer to what you want

          Would you say it feels similar to the rubberized coating on a Thinkpad?

        Of course not. Plasti Dip is a brand/product line, not one type of coating. It's like asking what kind of material the case is made of and getting an answer of "Sony"

        The super expensive process would be getting a bunch of homosexuals to spray paint (aka, dip. lol) each case. There are many much easier/cheaper ways to get a matte finish. I've handled one before as well, and don't recall it feeling particularly rubberized. Then again, that was long ago, and I wasn't rubbing my dick all over it. Maybe one of the youtubers who rubs their dick on theirs daily can provide a detailed description of exactly how it feels?

          No, it's like asking what kind of appliance the big white box is and getting an answer of "frigde"
          Sometimes a brand name becomes a category of product. Deal with it, obtuse homosexual.

            Kind of a bad example since fridge comes from refrigerator, not Frigidaire.
            Kleenex would have been the better, if cliched choice.

            But yes, anon is being obtuse pretending like he doesn't know what we're referring to with plastidip because it has a "a whole product line".

            And now the thread will die as we argue the semantics of the topic instead of the topic itself.

              kek. No, it's like asking what kind of appliance the big white box is and getting an answer of "Whirlpool". Where it would be a fridge, a washing machine, or a bunch of other things. A near perfect example of the Plasti Dip claim moronation.

                No u. I'm not the one making asspulled claims here and crying when someone asks me to back them up.

                I have an airbrush, and I’ve been wanting to paint a PlayStation black for a while with the Net Yaroze as an inspiration. Seeing that I myself nor anyone I know has ever touched a Net Yaroze, I don’t think I’d be bothered too much if the texture is off, but if anyone here knows a good paint type to use to potentially get close, please let me know. When I work up the courage to try, and can find a way to keep the Power/Open/etc text in tact or replace it reliably, I’ll post a photo.
                I’ve heard people say Cerakote is a close match.

                >I don’t think I’d be bothered too much if the texture is off
                The texture has a noticeable effect on the appearance. You're going to need to replicate that if you want it to look the same. If you just want to paint it black you can just paint it black.
                >and can find a way to keep the Power/Open/etc text in tact or replace it reliably
                This is basic stuff. You'll want to master such basics before attempting to paint a console. Especially if you're going to post the results. You don't need to frick up an actual PS1 case every time you try. Any old piece of ABS will do. You can even put your own stickers on it to test ways of masking them.

    In this video you can hear what it sounds like to touch the system and controller.

    It really does sound like a rubberized texture. Very similar to the sound made when rubbing the top of my Thinkpad or the side of my mouse.

    Is OP trying to make a counterfeit Yarouze PlayStation?

        Is OP trying to make a counterfeit Yarouze PlayStation?

        It would be next to impossible to make one that would pass even casual scrutiny.
        The reason I want to know is because I want to know.
        It's one of those things that has been vaguely described for 27 years but no definitive answer to what it is has been put forth.

          The basic question comes down to is it a type of ceramic, or a type of rubber?

    Replacement black PlayStation shells are available.
    The person who makes these had plans for dark grey, blue, and green versions but they were canceled for the near future. Maybe in a year or two.

      That shell looks pretty good though it's not net yaruze. Do you know where can I get it? I checked ebay but I don't know what's quality and what's chink stuff.

        Search for "opaque black playstation shell" and there will be several sites. Opaque is your key word.

    Sony used to make VCR's with this kind of slightly rough to the touch coating. It could possibly be something related to that.

    I thought maybe Sony would have released a VCR with a remote with the same coating, but a look around ebay came up with nothin'.

    Interesting note:

    https://github.com/toydoll/pcsx-revolution/issues/28

    --------------------------------
    "Developer/Non-Consumer Editions:

    # DTL-H1001 - Original blue-colored PS, only available to developers and gaming
    publications. Featured 8MB of RAM. Has no regional lockouts, so users are able
    to play all North American and Japanese software without fault, as well as
    pre-production software on CD-R media.
    # DTL-H1201 - Revision of the H1001.
    # DTL-H1001H - Grey version of DTL-H1001. Not much else known.
    # DTL-3000 - Also known as the Net Yaroze. Enabled consumers to create their
    own PS software. Like the H1001, could play all manner of PS software.
    # DTL-H3000
    # DTL-H3001 - This and the H3000 are odd, seemingly consumer versions of the
    Net Yaroze, save for no inclusion of development accessories. Both are a
    lighter black, however, and have a textured crystalized paint finish. Known as
    the "PlayStation Worldwide."
    --------------------

    There are two colors of the Net Yaroze?

      Try getting a cheap chink ps1 case as an experimental practice piece at first. That way you can test paint it and see how it turns out.
