I have experience using it on a car, I helped plasti-dipped my friends Mazda 3. We did all his emblems, wheels and center console.

I have been stripping out a NZXT Tempest EVO for awhile now. (I have been super busy with school) I dont know why the idea just dawned on me to do this. Someone must have done it on OCN somewhere. Is this a good idea? bad idea? I've never removed any of the things we plasti-dipped because it looks too good to remove it.

Any thoughts?

It might be an OCN first! If you have the chance, go for it and post a build log! thumb.gif

Well when they would be screwed in that would break the plasti-dip in the standoff holes, so I dont think there would be a problem. I was thinking about doing white interior and white grills too

Never thought of dipping wires... I think that's a great idea, but personally I like para-cord look better than the look of those wires. I think I am going to invest in white plasti-dip and attempt a computer case. I'm still waiting on a little bit more feed back on this thread before I spend that money. (I'm out a job and every penny counts but I have an Itch to mod, its been awhile tongue.gif)
