Ah had to tell, that at frist I was just thinking make new screw holes on the case for H100 so it would fit. Unfortunately I couldn't install the fans because it was touching that cooling fin. So I had to take a saw because I said, damn it I bought it so I won't return it because it just won't fit my case.

Also that paint bubbling happened three times. two times there where i took pictures and once on the other side. Had to peel off the old paint, wait a week for the old paint to dry completely, scratch up the surface so new layer of paint will hold up. Also I wanted to spray that "Zalman cool innovations" text to be much better but I have to finish it someday by hand brush. Also there were a few problems where the marker tape was hiding a little bit area that neede to be painted and had to second time paint that area which results risk of those bubbles.

Thanks to that I run out of my original paint when I still hadn't finished the otherside of the case so I went to buy more paint but I couldn't find same brand so I took other one that seemed to have same very same pigment. How wrong I was after one layer I noticed it was much much brighter than the original one I used

Sadly I didn't take any pictures of that. In a few days I went trough over 20 hardwareshops then one of the shop clerics told me this brand is renamed one that I used. And he was right. I was inpatient and I didn't wait for the old paint to dry completely and after a few minutes after I started repainting I noticed those bubbles and they were spreading damn fast. The old paint was still drying under the new one so the result was that.

But in the end everything went better than expected case looks pretty good. The industrial orange looks pretty great inside the case. Oh why did I pick up orange? It is just my favorite colour and I thought it might look good inside the case and made a few sketches with photoshop and here we are.

Pretty Nice job even with all of the problems you had....here's another trick I found on that bubbles problem I found and you don't have to wait a week...first sand your project with 160 grit( Takes a lot of paint off fast) to smooth scratches, then step up to 220 grit and fine sand in circular motion wet. let dry, a couple hours should do, wipe the whole surface with Acetone (you can get it from a Bodyshop or Supplier) let dry(less than 2 min) Paint....let layer dry. hit it lightly with the wet 220 just to break the glaze, next coat...as many layers as needed also this is how they get that deep submerged paint job you see on custom cars...200 plus layers of Clearcoat...

Looks good to me also. First couple of case Mods I did resulting in trips to the dump.

Well done.
If that is failing, I can not wait to see when you get it right. Sweet.

DC, Remember Lacquer, you could swim in its depth.

Yes chrsplmr, I do remember but it's illegal now because it's lead based...but it's easy to make if you can get a hold of Leaded Gas... just let it sit in a can for 2 weeks add 1/4 cup of Thinner to the Gunk filter and Paint.....hehehe But watch out for the fumes!

I have repainted a bicycle back in school. Took a "scrap" bike from pile of bicycles, took it apart, refurnished usable parts, polished off old paint and rust then used school's paintgun to paint whole bike in one go.

Yeah first mod with spray paints but guess when you seek perfection and come with "shiit it is starting to bubble" the fix option is to remove old paint and repaint it :). I chose not to do that just pulled off the worst
part, added new layer of paint and it looks like that. Most likely started bubbling because I took quick lunch break between painting and continued painting even though the old paint was already "drying".
