Hey guys, I know the metal shell of the ouya is a probable cause to some of the contoller and connection problems and a lot of people have purchased the plastic cases but I was wondering.

I have a TON of plasti dip spray left over from working on my motorcycle and was curious if I sprayed the case with this creating a rubber barrier around the ouya would it help?
I am not sure if its just that the metal blocks signal from going in and out cause its dense or because the metal refracts the waves.
I could always try since the stuff can be peeled off but Im lazy and would rather get the specifics of how the casing causes the lag.
thanks

Metal case? You think the BROWN BRUSHED METAL FINISH OUYA case? It's not metal is like plastic with color with metal pieces or something like that i think. I have it too and I have problem with two or more controllers. I don't use Wi-Fi.
