I have a Ti PB, and the paint is starting to flake off in places: does anyone know of a good paint that I can use to touch up the border (the lighter shade of paint) on my PB? I'm looking for a specific color shade and/or brand name. Thanks!

If it's still under warranty let Apple take care of it.

I don't think it is, and even if it was I would not want to be without my primary computer for weeks just because of some paint problems (the paint isn't flaking off the hinges, and isn't really that much of an eyesore; it is coming off the case in two small areas because I used Wildeepz screen protectors. These little cushions are sticky enough to rip the paint off where they make contact with the computer).

they ripped me off - charged my card, never shipped, promised refund but never followed through. Life's too short so I gave up.

Yeah, I know about TiPaint, but I didn't want to wait weeks for them to send me my stuff (it's not the best time of year to be ordering stuff).
