Key the surface, go back to metal if possible. Use an etching primer, lightly sanding with a high grade wet and dry between each coat, same with the colour and finish with a good few coats of laquer/clear coat.

I have purchased 5 of these and have had every single one either powder coated or wet sprayed as the finish from Silverstone is cack IMHO.

Takes about half an hour with a power sander to get one naked.

Nice cases though.
