My imac had a brown color on the bottom plastic, which gave it an old and ugly feeling. I decided to paint everything with an aluminum effect spray, the result was surprising. The power button was also worn and out of paint, I decided to sand it with 300 sandpaper, then 600 with water, now the button is completely translucent, and more beautiful.

When I finish assembling it, I'll post more pictures.

Honestly I think that looks really good!  I guess it makes sense for those discolored internal plastics!
