Awesome mod.


I too have a similar 'brushed' look on my case externals. I was wondering what would be a way to color it without ruining the brushed look. Did you by anychance test or see what a 'brushed' aluminum peice looks like colored?

Dont you wish HDs were smaller or at least prettier? The cage to me is the only unattractive thing in your case. Damn HDs... cant live with them cant live without (well you sort of kinda could...)

How would he know if you can paint it . . HE DIDNT DO IT HIMSELF!

He could have witnessed the process on one of his own peices or a peices in the shop. I am not asking how he did it or who he took it too I am asking his opinion.

yes it DOES preserve the brushed look. Again, it's not PAINT.. it's anodizing. basically, just imagine your silver case in a diffrent color. that's it. same texture, same look, different color.

As for doing the mod myself.. again.. i must stress that ANODIZING is NOT a simple do it yourself project. It involves DANGEROUS chemicals ad acids and LOTS of electricity. I'd be crazy to anodize it myself without all the necessary safety equipment. It's better to let the pros do it. And what's so bad about letting the pro's do it? I'm sure show cars aren't worked on my the owners themselves. I'm sure remodeling a home isn't done by the owners themselves. There's lots of things i'd trust a professional to do a better job of.

 

[knif_00]

I'm a little off in the noggin. . I'd be willing to try it myself.

 

[wildbilly2k]

yeah me too it would be interesting i even know how it is done they have these big bukets one is acid it strips the parts for like 5 minutes then what they do is connect wires between the parts after it is nickle plated and then this makes a balance of electricity after this they dump it in some chemical run electricity through it and it looks really pretty

Re: Wicked Cool Club!!

....COS ITS TECHINICLY WRONG TO SAY WICKED COOL!

Then why do you keep saying "...it don't make sense"? Technically you should be saying "it DOESN'T make sense."

Got it? GOOD!

 

[knif_00]

Okay, I'm crazy but not that crazy. Maybe I'll just leave my case alone or bust out some wicked spray paint.

 

[64Thunderbolt]

Cheer
