Hmm...Ok.
Can try to quote me the price of those 2 paints? I have to design my case 1st then only can start the painting.

ace hardware brand primer = rm20, 5-15mins easy dry.
samurai lacquer = rm20 (i guess, dunno cuz last time buy got discount)

Does those paint in cans or big bucket?

spray can la bro..

what u can do with the case

1] Inverted ATX
2] Transparent Side Panel
3] Top blow-hole
4] Repaint to glossy effect
5] U hav 4 dvdrw slots... use 1 slot for dvd.. the most top.. the other 3 u remove.. put an acrylic plastic and cut a hole for 120mm fan... so nice 1...

yeah, cut side panel with a grinder eh bro.. u sure got stiff hand

I don't have grinder
Btw, about the case current paint, do I have to remove it?

change it into black 1st.

Means apply black > white?

i tumpang ya , i still got no idea how to do inverted ATX

to do inverted atx. must removed all the pices and fix it back the way u wan by driling holes. not really recomended. will destroy the casing regid it not properly done.
mine sanget one way after fixing and cannot properly stand.

steps which u cant missed or it will never complete

1] remove all rivets... take it piece by piece..
2] make sure u picture it 1st.. flip every part except front panel, top panel and bottom panel.. (parts to flip is side, inner part and rear)
3] if u can, when u wanna assemble it back, use the previous made hole, make a new 1 if u cant match it anymore...

if wanna see mine... look for my case mod thread, inverted atx + 240v fan, white color and hav tribal tattoo at front panel

p/s: i cant give u the pic now coz my office block photobucket...

wahahahaha... my office's firewall burnt.. no more blocking... btw this is the pic..

Actually all casings 4 side panel and the top panel can be removed?

yup... all can... (based on my experience in stripping previous casing)

wow omara...i only can praise ur hand job is very very very neat n nice n PERFECT!!! keep it up...teach us more! haha

Go for flat black for exterior and interior...plus a little bit minor colour like blue/red
if you are not planning to cut the sidepanel then paint the exterior black should be enuf
finish the job with black fan controller on the front like coolermaster musketeer2 or sunbeam rheobus
sure rocks!!
