TS, u can diy urself if u got time, or u can send it to any car paint shop if u really wan the casing and willing to spent $$$.

but mayb u can try those do furniture eh, those involve painting steel furniture or custom made furniture shop.

I sent mine to powder coat after some time consuming DIY job on my mobo tray. Remember, we need patient and time for paint job, a rush paint job is always no go.

Spray 1 layer, wait it dry w/o dust or minimal dust, thn spray again... u will get the job done rite if u got patients. Or just sent it for others to paint and pay certain amount of fees, I think some car paint shop are not as expensive as getting a new casing...

come on guys ... he need help on his casing ... not your comments ....
help him up la .... and stick to the topic



Battousai ..... i've done a few mods myself ... sorry to say ... i cant find any valid solution but to sand down the paint ... re-apply again ...


the paint bleeding is resulting by amatuer work by not applying primer to etch the paint to the surface .... and with heavy spraying + less layer

those methods are only used by mom who want to do everything fast


the damage is already done and cannot be recoverable ... you'll have to sand it down to the bare to remove the paint

reapply primer coat, color coat and if preferred a clear coat

if that guy happens to use primer ... just sand down to the primer ... and start there ... but most ppl dun use primer to cut cost, and cut the paint life


sorry to hear of your case, but i advise you to learn of spray painting ... it's a good experience to learn something .... just learn to press the nozzle and the timing ...... it's not hard

apply many coats ... but not thick ones ........ thin coats ...

err..the best solution is sell it off.. tongue.gif.
im able to repair it, but its going to take lotsa time...
frm the pictar i can see m2ne might use some kind of chemical to strip the original paint off, looks like the chemical is too strong & its damage the base of the front panel or maybe m2ne wanna test the casing as it show in the advert of this casing saying the front panel is fire proof (i dont know) tongue.gif.

to fix this u may need lotsa sanding & maybe some paste to cover the damage part & resanding it again, till the surface is smooth ...

Ok guys need your help big time. I sent my casing to m2n-e to modify but the paintjob is a real mess after being done by him.  cry.gif

So this thread is open to suggestions on how to save my casing especially the front red part so that other modders that I'm able to contact have ideas on what to do. icon_rolleyes.gif

Really thanks for the help u guys can provide  notworthy.gif  notworthy.gif
PS: to other modders who can help me out please PM me.

Things I wish to do to the case is:

1) I have a UV acrylic blue panel so a holder needs to be done. It covers the whole side
2) top 140mm exhaust outlet
