MonsterMawd Posted March 19, 2010 Author Share Posted March 19, 2010 I applied the base coat on the HAF 922 chassis last night, this is Rustoleum's Grey self etching primer. It reminded me of Military Grey.. I love the color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MonsterMawd Posted March 22, 2010 Author Share Posted March 22, 2010 I've gotta get it done soon, it's the main prize for the Stompfest LAN Event, April 10th - 11th in Indianapolis, http://www.stompfest.com/index.php?pageid=lanreg Today I ordered COOLER MASTER eXtreme Power Plus 500W Power Supply today, so they could power up any lights or fans I've installed while it's on display.

MonsterMawd Posted March 22, 2010 Author Share Posted March 22, 2010 I really liked the speckled paint effect on the feet, so I'm repeating it on the rear 120mm Nautilus rear fan grill, http://www.mnpctech.com/120mm_Overkill_Fan_Grills.html I masked off the face of the Nautilus grill, then painted the inner walls of the openings with Black self etching primer. flipped it over, and painted the backside as well. I then removed the masking tape and held the can roughly 16" away from the grill and sprayed the perimeter of it. This is how you achieve the speckled paint effect.

MonsterMawd Posted March 23, 2010 Author Share Posted March 23, 2010 The exterior is getting painted the sample I posted earlier, Silver Grey Metallic. I applied Matte Clear over the primer on the chassis. Here is the XIGMATEK XLF-F1254 120mm White LED Case Fans. These are rated 1500 RPM @ 61 CFM.
