You're contradicting yourself.

Contradict: To be contrary to; be inconsistent with.

I think you still do.

just go to any local hardware store and ask if they have paint for plastics. if the case is chipping then you should sand it down a little till its smooth. i would suggest using a couple coats of primer. sand it down with 600 sand paper then use the color you chose with a couple coats, sand that then if you want a nice shine use a clear coat spray with a couple coats then sand it with about 1000 sand paper then maybe 1500. hope that helps out.

To contradict is to argue. So to contradict yourself is to argue with yourself.
