Going to be changing the colour, inside and out, going for a white and blue theme, with the grills, HAF logo and maybe other parts coloured blue, with the rest being white. BUT im a super noob when it comes to painting things so im kinda lost on where to start, and what not. I have read that i will need

Wet and Dry Sandpaper 400 Grit, couple sheets of these to "Scuff the surface" <-- Will i need to scuff the plastical is well? and the Grills ?
One can of each - Surface Primer Grey, and Plastic Primer
Two cans of - Touch Satin White Spray Paint <-- Err Satin White? Sorry
One can of - Metallic Blue Spray Paint <-- Matallic is a bit of an experiment within this experiment LOOL

Is that all i need and any advice on how to go on about this ?

Thanks in Advance :D
 
if you got time take some picture to show the before/during/after of the project that you are doing, would be good for other users like self, make the move....personally I am more interest in the motherboard shelf being painted not sure what to do..

Yeah i was going to take a bunch of pictures, but my Camera is broken, poxy thing wont turn on, and yes i have tried charging the battery LOOL (Could use my phone camera), and secondly my dad has already started :(, hes has prepared some of the case for painting but what i can do is taking pictures from now, till the end of the build :D, but the quality wont be that good.. Sorry

As for painting the Interior my plan is to roughen up the surface of everything inside it, Prime it and paint. But im stuck between taking it all apart, each panel that has a Rivet in it should be removable :D, so this may make life easier :D, thats the only thing i have left to decide :)
