Hello.
I currently have a nice gaming case, with a glass side. I also have 3 neon lights inside of it. I still am not satisfied with the boring black exterior, and would like to paint it a neon green. Is there a certain kind of paint I should use, or do most people just use spray paint?

I found this on Xoxide. Could I use this to paint the exterior of my case?

That paint goes on clear and only shows up under UV lighting. So the effects on the exterior wouldn't be visible until displayed under blacklight. Most people use a Krylon Fusion type paint to their case interiors/exteriors. That paint is more intended to paint interior parts such as cards, boards, window etchings, etc.
 
The best paint to use for this would be anything by Rustoleum... Krylon just doesn't have the durability for the outside of a case imo.
 
Neon green on that black case of yours will make it look wicked and cool! That's exactly what I've been trying to do.. but I haven't even found the time to try to get it painted, though it looks cool if you've got green uv cables to go with your uv green fans and black light :D
 
Thanks for replies. Ill look into that paint.
Can somone maybe give me a link of what/where to buy it online? I'd prefer to have the paint shipped if possible.

fyi, heres my pc in its current state
