Kinda gimmicky, but interesting enough that I read the article so I figured I would share.

    I’m actually considering taking my brand skin off my deck. The deck gets hot enough that the skin is starting to warp and slide around in places.

        FWIW I have no issues with my dbrand skin on my Steam Deck OLED. Though I spent hours to get a near perfect application and I repasted its APU with Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut.

          Good paste. I’ve used that stuff in other projects.

          But that’s good to know. I don’t think the Kryonaut replacement would be significant enough of a thermal change to matter in this application, so maybe the updated hardware in the OLED is cooler overall and makes it a better candidate for skinning.

      That sounds icky in the hand…

      Seems like ColorWare style painting is a better option. (But much more expensive.)

        It’s none of the areas that I hold while playing thankfully, it just doesn’t look very good/neat. I might only take off those parts vs leave it partially skinned.
