dude love the paint job and all
I'm going to pain my interior white with a metallic overlay to accept all the Blue LEDs in the case/ UV
what'd you use to avoid painting what you didn't want to (ie the drive bay locks etc)
I have all the paint sitting here just haven't gotten around to starting!

awesome armor job!

Hmm.. My advise is this.. Take it all off! As you can see in the pictures, i have unscrewed, unclicked and unhinged everything from the case, because no matter how careful you are, if you don't want paint "there", rest assured, Paint will get "there"! :) Depending on what case you have, you should be able to remove all the bits and pieces..

Some good advise would be, have a lot of patience.. you (hopefully) plan to use spraypaint, so paint it in 3-5 minutte intervalls, to avoid spraying the same area multible times and get "runs" ..the paint i used takes about 5-10 minuttes to dry enough, so that you can apply a second coat without it running.. You should/would rather apply 8-10 really thin coats to get a nice coverage than spraying one or two thick coats.. practice on an old case you pick up in a dumpster somewhere, if you are not used to use cans..

Final advice: put screws in all holes that you dont want paint in.. i put screws from an old case in the motherboardtray to avoid the M.board mounts getting full of paint.. It's easier to unscrew the old screws, than to have to force the mounts for the M-board into dried paint. (I hope that made sence, i know it was a twisted explanation, but i hope you understand where i'm going) :)

Other than that: Go for it, worst case scenario is having to sand down the case and start over! :)

sweet man that was extremely helpful!
you answered questions that I had wondered about before and forgot to ask haha
well I have high quality spray paint but it said like 2 hours min per coat so that's why I've been procrastinating on the whole thing haha, this doesn't sound as bad doing 3-5 min intervals!

I dont know if you can do it in 3-5 minuttes intervals, but i did.. I painted it earlier today. (It was really nice weather here, and i went outside in the sun, and started painting :) So the heat made the paint dry faster than normal, and on the can it says that the paint is dry enough to touch in 10-20 mins. and dry all the way through in 30-45 mins, but it went much faster in direct sunlight. :) So hopefullly you will have some nice weather.. And just go for it :) Good luck!

sure thing!
It's been pretty crappy here in PA all week, some sun but mostly overcast and extremely hot and muggy so hopefully next week will present an opportunity!

Let me know how it goes, please :)

Good JOB!!!
