Just curious.. I'm planning to mod the tool-less clips (for HDD and DVD drives) and they are plastic. Does this mean I cannot spray paint them? Or how do you go about advising on this if I still want to paint them - use brushed paints instead of spray paints?

Thanks!

Toluene in the spray not strong enough to melt away the plastic...
Unless your spraying skill is bad... as you sprayed too much and too thick in a single attempt.
Just keep the layer thin as thin as possible spray again after the layer dried (for best result spray 3 very thin layers).
