are there any guides on modding the MX 1000? like how to carefully remove the parts and give it a nice paint and etc?

from what i read with previous painting guides, i'll need to first sand it, going with a small sandpaper, 400? and work my way to 1000? and then paint > sand > paint > sand > paint > sand > prime > sand > prime > sand?

i'm not exactly 100% sure so i'd like to read up before i do anything major.

I can tell you primer goes before painting, and the amount of sanding and clear coats at the end is dependent on how smooth/shiny you want it.
