I just did my hard drive cages with 3 thick layers, and wow does it make a major difference. I snagged a little of the plasti-dip on one hard drive, but the rest went in just fine (dry time was 24 hours). I was 100% sure that all my noise was minimized, and it was just my large fans making all the noise, but it turns out my hard drives were much noisier than I thought. It is almost an unbelievable difference; like I shut off one of my large server fans.

I am probably late in the conversation, but its my understanding with clear coat lacquers that you need to buff, re-apply, buff, re-apply, for at least 3 coats... This from a hot rodder I knew in the 80's. Is this wrong?

Bump. Hey guys are you priming your metal before using PD?
I am having a hell of a time keeping it from bubbling when applied over primer.

I didn't prep my case or psu at all before I sprayed them with PD. Mine didn't bubble or anything, looks much better than the stock gray.
Did you try sanding the primer some? It might just not have a good surface to stick to.

Just cleaned off with Windex or Simple Green, dried it with a soft cloth, and sprayed away.

This is pretty cool and I'd imagine perfect for shrouds and the like.
SmasherBasher, have you considered using a seal-coat between the plastidip and the clear? I would try something like Zinsser's Seal Coat - maybe I'll give this a whirl as soon as I can free up some time.
