PC with mirror paint finish

I had to paint this 3 times. 1st time I chiped the paint, 2nd time a fly landed on the wet paint. Luck for me the third time was a charm. The mirror finish turned out better than I thought it would. You can see a quick look at the fanless graphics card at the begining of the vid. I also ordered a pair of 8" UV lights to be installed.

I'm still trying to figure what else I can do to enhance the looks of my case. Sleeve the cables perhaps? Give the front Bezel a glossy finish too? Maybe even paint the optical and card reader a different color?

I want to make one... :P liquid chrome paint? w/ clear.. and wax (lol @ wax)

@bobbysam232 No, after all the painting and repainting. I ended up using a high-gloss paint without the clear coat. The high gloss paint will buff up nicely. It takes longer to dry than the other paint. you may have to paint it let it dry for a couple days sand it smooth and paint again.

Looks great, but I'm guessing its a fingerprint magnet?

[honitsten]

@thegr81337 It was more of a dust magnet really. I did clean it quite often. I ended up selling it to my uncle.

Great paint job!..How long did you wait to put in the cleat coat after applying the paint?

[honitsten]

@ElNeNiito1205 I waited an hour before aplying clear coat...... I later sanded all the paint off and repainted with a glossy paint and skipped out on the clear coat. It worked out much better this way.

It looks a little hazy. Don't get me wrong, it looks great, but a clear on top of that will make it look 1000x better.
