What type of paint should I use to paint my computer case? I am planning to only paint small accents with a brush and have some paint on hand. Will I need some special heat resistant paint or would I be good with regular paint? I have an Enthoo Luxe case. If I do need heat resistant paint, where can I find that in a bottle, not a spray paint can?

A case will not get hot enough to be a problem.
Warm, perhaps.
You could use the paint you have.

But, I think you get a smoother finish with spray.
Mask off carefully and spray. You will get a sharper edge than you can with a brush.

Trust me, unless you plan to have your case look like a Bob Ross painting, brush painting is gonna look bad. Spray paint and masking tape is the way to go. Also no, you don't really need paint with any special heat resistance as the case, even on the inside, tends to stay relatively cool.
