So what happened with some of those cracking areas is that before i sprayed the clear coat on i must have touched it to move it or something like that, usually before i let some get sprayed with clear coat i washing it with alcohol.
and as for the power button i simply did not do a good enough job taping, i didn'thave proper paint tape plus i couldnt find a good enough knife blade
how i painted it, i simply painted all of the pieces white to prime them (2 - 4 coats) then i went over the xbox shell and face plate with yellow plastic paint (4-6 coats)
then covered the buttons on the face plate and painted the faceplate and the grills with silver
then everything was sealed with a high gloss clear coat, please tell me what you think
