I just got a new (to me) external hard drive, I bought it cheap from a friend turns out it was just a bad USB cord So I bought some sand paper grit 150, 220, 320, and 400 and some Krylon Fusion blue gloss and I will be replacing the white LED with a red LED. I'm not stranger to swapping a 0603 SMD LED but I am a first time painter, anyone have some tips for a first time painter?The HD sill togetherTaken apartAnd a close up of the LED
The Fastest way to put this in steps is to first:Get 600-800 Grit, 1000-1200 Grit, Primer, Color paint of choice, and clear coat1. sand your case with the 600-800 grit, then after that the 100-1200 for the smooth feel2. Wash off the dust on the case,3. spray on your primer, about 2 Coats is the neccesary (10-20 min between coats)4. spray on the color of choice (same like above 2-3 Coats, 10-25 Mins between coats)5. Wait until completely dry, spray on 2 or more coats of you clear coat (10-20 mins between coats)Tip: dont spray when there is wind outside as it will cause bubbles, and do it on a sunny day, otherwise youll have to wait up to 30 Mins between Coatshope this helps
do I need to buy paint that says primer on the can or will just regular krylon fusion white be ok for the primeralso I stopped at home depot before work and the highest sand paper grit they had was 600 so I ordered some 800 and 1200 onlinealso for wet sanding do I wet the paper the case or both?
