Nigel,that must have been some masking job especially around the keys ? I have never ever heard of anyone painting a laptop,surely a candidate for the Guinness Book of Records as a first ?
It certainly looks good and you will not loose it !

Nice Idea Nigel and very brave at having a go at this too.
Just get the right decals now and I am sure it will look the Biz

Regards........Mark.

i dont think he masked it off richard....well he may of but if were to paint my laptop i would simply take it apart, paint it and put it back togeather.

most laptops have instructions you can get for exactly how to take it completely apart and put it back togeather!!!

but if you did mask it nigel....very nice job!!!
