[Linus' Mods] Orange GTX 970 Tips (WAN Show - 4th March 2016)

[Linus' Mods] Orange GTX 970 Tips (WAN Show - 4th March 2016)

 

I'm a huge Gunpla fan and I quite a few custom builds for my Gundams. After watching the WAN Show today, I felt extremely sad for Linus screwing up his custom paint job. (๑◕︵◕๑)

So as a suggestion for Linus, instead painting with nail polish, why not try out some easy, safe & cheap way to paint the text?

 

I would like to suggest Linus to use the following method and materials to paint his GTX 970 text on the card:

 

1. Enamel Paint

2. Zippo lighter fluid

3. Q-tips

4. Mixing tin
4. Small-tipped paint brush

Just remember to paint colors before applying a final clear coat to the card. (❍ᴥ❍ʋ)

 

As for the community, feel free to give any other better paint job suggestions that are better than mine!!!

 

よろしくお願いします!

...but he won't get notified he's been messaged.

Lol, anyways I suggest using plastidip. Nail polish will flake over time anyways.

Nail polish works well for smaller lettering, but probably won't last as long on larger areas, especially if the GPU is cooling down and heating up lots.

I've used nail polish for USB sticks, knives and some other stuff.
