[TheNeck]

i just got a pc61 lian li case and i wanted to paint it red. Can i do this? Can i paint ontop of the aluminum? thanks for the help.

Why would you want to paint a lian li case? You paid so much for it for the aluminum, why would you want to cover it up?

You can paint it, but your life insurance policy is canceled. (See suicide clause, paragraph H, line 32)

Maybe he likes the weight/design of the lianli but doesnt like the color. Im still going to ask WHY though.

If you really want to do it, have it re-anodized or powder coated. It will look awesome, but it won't be cheap. If you try to just paint it, it will probably look kinda crappy.

Red Enermax Aluminum Case

Actually looks pretty good.

The only "color" that adheres to aluminum is beige.

why god why would you want to do that. You want a red one, you get it anodized or powder coatedl like was suggested above.

they do it at designcomp, but it ain't cheap.

I say let the guy do what he wants. Sand it and prime it first. But Why buy a lian li and paint it?

Or just have it painted professionaly by a reputable auto shop...candy apple red with chrome highlights and trim comes to mind.

How about re-laquering it?. Using a clear red laquer you would have the colour you want as well as preserving the brushed finish, I`m sure that they are availble for use on aluminium
