Let the paint sit at least a day for rattle can stuff. You want all the chemicals to 'breathe' out of the color coat before you add clear on it Nate.


Rustler, on the hand glaze, try turtle wax spray shine. We used it in replace of hand glaze when we would run out at the shop. Hold on i'll see a/b some linkage so you'll know what Im talking about.

Edit: This is the stuff. It's like a semi-wax. It's a quick shine (as stated on the bottle) works -very- similar to hand glaze but is easier to hand wipe clean.

Jessie's Gumdrop - Day 09

This update contains a couple of short work sessions mxed with today's work session which was all painting Ok, lets get to it...

The BEHEMOTH makes an appearance!! Thats the current case for Jessie's pc parts. I brought it down the other night and put it out of commission - permanently

gutting and dusting out

my fancy new LED extension cord, now you can see if your about to get zapped, when you get zapped, instead of guessing

ZOMG Octopus!

after taming that beast and slapping it on the work table - its about to get destickered and sanded

flirting with death to tape off the inside of the psu vents

taped off the back stuff
did yo know this old psu has a yate loon 80 mm fan? no wonder it still rocks

taped off the cdrom drive opening, faceplate was painted by pro paint



suffocated the octopus and taped it all down

the flat black anodized handles that no longer impressed me, ready for some clear

feet and handle washers, and cdrom, ready for prime and paint

psu ready for prime and paint

priming action...



2 coats clear on the handles

I did 3 coats of primer on all the parts that were getting primed



heres the 4th clear coat on the handles, couldnt resist

on the cdrom, psu, and washers I did two quick coats separated by 2 minutes, then let sit 10 mins, and did two more quick coats the same way...







after the 4th coat of paint I was actually liking the paint work, and getting hungry

food break, a chicken roll thing from pizza place, mhmm...

while eating mind wandered to next project...
MUST
STAY
FOCUSED

I did a small dance as I checked the psu paint after I ate...

I think I am enjoying this painting stuff, and if I might say so myself, getting fairly decent at it

the tunage as I left my shop for the evening


tomr I will see if the psu and cdrom need a couple coats of clear or not. That Krylon clear really sits down nice after a few minutes And their paint is just sweet imho

thanks for watching

dood, thats a nice job on that PSU - its almost sexy...ahem...

The suspense leading up to assembly of the final product is tormenting me!

repo_man

And you thought you needed a booth or something in your garage! You are getting pretty spiffy with a rattle can Rustler! Looks good mate!

And GOOD GAH that other case is GINORMOUS! I thought my Sanguineus case was big, that would dwarf mine!

I want that full tower...

great work! I didn't know you could apply coats to fast... my cans say to wait 10mins, but clearcoat is 1-2mins

looks great! Can't wait to see it all assembled, especially with these new painted things (which i didn't know/remember you were painting )

It's generally dependent on the paint and air temp/humidity where you paint, as far as flash times go (time b/w coats). I usually give most paints a good 5mins regardless, just to be on the safe side,lol.
