Thread: Paint A Case

  1. #1
    Hey, I've got some old cases I'm gonna be modding up and just wondering what kinda paint is best?
    automotive paint is probably really good I imagine, but also expensive....
    does regular spray paint work fine?

    The paint is actually less important than the prep.

    Attention to detail when sanding and priming can make even cheap paint look okay.
    The reverse is not true...
