Metal Grounding Technique

It's very easy to do.. And the effect is awesome. Ground metal painting has been around since the 50s. You'll need to use an Anodize effect paint like Duplicolor's Metalcast. Otherwise you don't get the translucent color effect. So grab an case panel, sand it down to the bare metal, grab an angle grinder or dremel, put on safety glasses and have fun!

Grinding & Deep etching the surface of the aluminum bezel before applying Metalcast paint produces a translucent color effect.

Very nice, I love the red mesh window. Is this the case for that Ghost Rider movie or is this just a regular hell-themed case?

Nope but u can fine the worklog for the ghost rider mod here:
viewtopic.php?t=462&start=60

I will be honest, i aint much of a hell sort fan. i like this case though :) the flames aren't just flames, their meshed. And that Top Blow whole looks quite good :) i have to say though the Water Jet Side panel looks the best :)

I love the work gone into the case and the ideas and technics used but I think theres too much red on the front plate. bit blinding, I feel its missing something.
