Hey i brought a rivet gun and 1/8 rivets to take my case apart to paint. every forum i went to said that pc cases are 1/8. the problem is when i try to put a rivet back on there is too much of the rivet left on the underside. Does anyone know the size and name of the rivets i need to use for a pc case (HAF 932)

After you sqeeze the rivet gun a few times the rivet should end up being almost flush to the inside of the case.
