Sorry, 4 identical posts must be a new record. I'm using a dodgy wireless connection, and it kept telling me the page couldn't be loaded, so I kept resubmitting until I finally got through (who doesn't?). I'll trim them out if the connection holds for a minute or two (unlikely, it was hard just to supply this edit. :()

I will be pounding the wireless router into the ground later.

2nd edit: Posts trimmed, wireless router whimpering in corner.
i had it just the same, like "no DNS server" etc.. i just got a cable :P

The Krylon Blue paint I use also says it doesnt work on plastic, but if you sand it down, it will.

But with your knee pads, all that wear and tear on them from them rubbing on dirt probably was just the same as sanding.
