Space Black has been the hot new Apple color lately, coming to products like the MacBook Pro and iPad Pro. However, Apple never released Space Black for the new Mac mini, and stuck to just silver. Luckily, one Apple enthusiast decided to paint his Mac mini in black, and it looks pretty good…
Apple enthusiast and collector L0vetodream posted a number of photos (and a video) of his hydro-dipping process of turning a silver M4 Mac mini into a Space Black-like colorway. This process required him to tear down the whole machine to just the bare aluminum chassis, and then dipping the chassis underwater. After a couple hours, the finish started to develop, and the end result is incredible.
He also created a Space Black Mac Studio, which looks great as well. He also mentioned that he’d black out anyones Mac Studio for $100, which seems like a decent price.
Here are his end result photos. You can follow L0vetodream on X to see even more photos and videos!
M4 Mac mini is currently on sale on Amazon for $559, if you’d like to pick one up for yourself.
