Removing paint

[ImDefinetlyUrGOD]

I recently painted the inside of my computer black. In some spots things didnt fit anymore and the paint job wasn't so great. To take it off is it as simple as adding Paint thinner on it? Any special way?

Probably your best bet is to take it somewhere and get it media-blasted (probably sand blasted). It would probably take like 5 minutes and cost only ~20 bucks for them to do it. Save you a whole lot of work. That is ofcourse unless you already own a sand-blasting setup.

Aircraft stripper should do it. They sell it at autozone.

lacquer thinner works great even if it's enamel paint. Gives an interesting buzz too.

The professional power method will yield the best results. If you try to use some sort of stripper or naval jelly then you will end up with alot of crap and paint in all the cracks and crevices all over the place. Plus, the surface, after it has been power scrubbed, should be nicely prepared to take the first layer of primer for the repainting effort. Just don't let it sit too long, especially if it's a steel case as it will start to oxidize fast.
