Hi,
I am wanting to purchase a 'Storm Stryker' case, but wanting to personalize it as well, you know, setting it a part from ever other Strykers..
But I am gonna need some tips, I mean, I understand I will need either decals or some stencil cutouts, but how would the paint job itself go, since the Stryker is a bit glossy, does anything need to be done the to surface prior to painting? (I assume it will need a wipe over with some mentholated spirits or something, right?)
Doesn't need to be sanded back or anything?
Plus, what's the common approach, Is it spray painted, or brushed?
I haven't actually decided totally on the designs yet, but I just wanna make sure I understand how to follow it out, I don't want to wreck a $200 case, by destroying it with a badly done paint job.
This is probably easier than I imagine, but still, I wanna be sure
If someone could give some tips on it, would be awesome ^_^
(Plus, anyone know any Australian stores that have good stencil / decals for this?)
