Case Mod :D

Alrighty guys, I love my Noctis 450 but I just saw one on YouTube that looks amazing, it's by IBP and I would like to somewhat replicate the paint-job.

This is how the N450 looks normally a64c48473b28a6581eec6cc70b650cf2.jpg

Spray paint...? My first time nodding a paint job so keep it simple-ish

Its probably safer to use PlastiDip if you dont have much experience painting as its removable if you mess something up.

I'm extremely naïve when it comes to Plasti-dip, how do you go about doing it, can you link me to something that explains it well?

I wouldn't recommend plasti-dip since it's on fine mesh like that plasti-dip will most likely clog up those fine openings. Spray paint would be a better choice.

 

I have a write up on plasti-dip spray paint and etc under General Painting if you need more indepth steps:
