painting inside of case

alexakasloth · 28 May 2007 at 15:41

hey all, there's this grey layer of paint on the inside of my pc case, if I were to paint it would I need to take it off before priming?

4 lines of text isn't too big.

But the gaps inbetween them makes it too big.

No way is your sig 4 lines of text, looks like 5 or 6 tbh.

Light 400Grit will do the trick.

FrannoBaz · 28 May 2007 at 18:57

change it or be banned... its up to u

You shouldn't need to sand the insides of it before you paint it.

His sig takes up less space than mine (390 x 108 vs 408 x 108 total)

Just make sure it is clean (no dust or grease). I usually give things a rub over with some paint thinners to make sure.

I won't get banned for (not) having a sig which is too big, i've had sigs before which are this size.

Thanks for replying Raikiri , buzz, and malfunkshun, I gave the mobo tray a sand with 400grit wet/dry, though i'll take your advice and just give the rest a good clean. There are some parts which are srayable, but impossible to get to.

Going for a black and white theme with a chieftec dragon, a little bit of red on the fans aswell (xilence's).

Raikiri, bloody nice set up you've got now

alexakasloth · 29 May 2007 at 15:04

Gave the insideparts a spray with 4/5 light layers today, am I right thinking it needs 24 hours to cure?

Looks fairly nice, I used a glossy white.

Mark A · 29 May 2007 at 15:26

Sounds good, got any pics?

.

My mate painted the inside of his Antec case which is similar to a chieftec dragon iirc.

alexakasloth · 29 May 2007 at 15:36

Will be starting a thread when my keyboard arrives this week, there will be pics in there

That case is almost identical lol :eek:

Theres a few more bit's inside that need painting like the cd drive bays and rails.

alexakasloth · 29 May 2007 at 15:56

OK, go on then

Small smudge

needs sanding and re-painting
