At the beginning i just wanted to take everything out n clean the dust...while i was dismantling my mobo,fans, ram ,proc n etc....i found out my casing was heavily scratched and feel like giving it a new paint...so i started my small little paint job....actually i din plan to post this topic, but on my 2nd thought "Y NOT?" and i missed the 1st few photos...

U can c all the parts are on the floor and my casing was at my balcony...



Too many dust in my PSU...decided to clean them


BEFORE


AFTER


The whole casing is sent to the CLEANING DEPARTMENT (my toilet)


As u can c here....i've sand certain area of my side panel, becoz those are the area that i accidentaly scartched them


After the cleaning....all of them were left to dry at the balcony...so nothing i can do

Please resize all pics. 640x480 is more than adequate. 800x600 to show fine detail work.

Updates...but disaster.....

I repaint my casing in flatblack. first i used this brand (DPI) of Spraycan for my Top panel


After done with my top n right side panel of spraying...my can is empty coz i spary for few layers to cover up the heavily scratch part and those part which i've sand...to get my work done quickly, i went to the nearest hardware shop n get another flat black. unfortunately, the hardware shop doesn sell the brand that i use to spray my top panel....so i got this instead...BOSNY...a chapalang brand i think, coz i nv heard this brand before.(Uploaded the wrong pic-white colour)


and then....DISASTER STRIKES!!!!i think u guys can tell the differences right? the chapalang Bosny turn into FOAM BLACK!!!!! not FLAT. and it is kinda powdery when u touch the surface of the paint even it is completely dry ....consider a failure... need to repaint


Left (DPI ) Right (Chapalang Bosny)


i thought i can finish my exterior spraying to...but...the Bosny brand of spray really spoil my mood....i think i will continue my work tomorrow

I think m2n-e also know this problem...he is the person who thought me this word "Foam Black". I cant imagine how is foam black when he told me, but now i can c it clearly for myself...
