I had a amx form factor machine, and it was beige of course so I had a can of black spray paint that I picked up at big lots and thought hell i'll just paint it. (I still need to paint the bezel on my 52x cdrom on my other rig black though. which is the original reason I got the spray paint)

Other side


As you can tell there was some bubbleing with the paint on the top and other side. When I started spraying there was no wind then halfway through the top it got windy, then it was still windy on the other side, and then of course it's starts to sprinkle. So I let the first coat dry and I sanded down the ruff spots, and will be putting on a final coat tommarow dependent on how it comes out.

I got the front bezel repainted with final coat and looks great.

But when I was doing the top and sides again, the paint started comen out as sludge so I stopped and I gotta run and get another can (it ran out) and I gotta resand the top again to get rid of that crap off the top.
