Comp Case Touch Up
I've aquired a case that has some scratches in it here and there and I'd like to touch it up what's a good kind of paint to do so?

Anything, use an aerosol paint in the color of your choice, but make sure you mask up the important bits and CD drives, vents etc. You only want to paint the case, not the internals.

If the panels come off, paint them while off.

Case painting tutorial: http://www.mnpctech.com/case-mod-pai...d-how-to1.html

How to give a excellent finish with spray paint!

I've used some of the two-tone illusion metalic automotive paint on clearance over at wally world in the past. It's a bit expensive, but looks a treat.

"The first job of a true patriot is to question the Government"

Thomas Jefferson

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for any assumption of power. The Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters ... but they mean to be masters. "

Daniel Webster
