    +J Nichols yeah but how many people do you know that repaint the exterior of the case with the same color just to make it look better vs. the interior of the case where there are lets say different areas where you can use different technics, like, how to make the paint resistant to scratches from the side panel or hdd bay etc. and stuff like that.

    For the people who want more details, when dry sanding you go from a low (200) grid to higher to smooth it out. Clean it off and then prime. For the wet sanding use a very high grid one since you're not trying to go through the paint layer
