Ok so I have a fractal case, so ya'll know they come with white accents, I'd like to paint them matt black, pref without doing primer and shit, but how should I go about this?

 

Is there a particular sort of paint I need to use?

being an auto-body painter my self  plastidip is fine. The only thing that you have to worry about is heat(checking plastidip heat specification) and you should be find with heat your cpu will melt before you have to worry about the plastidip doing anything to you case

Wouldn't a proper paint look much better than rubbery plastic in a can though?
