Hello Lotters, In preparation of buying a new Monitor, I've decided to do a spray painting on some parts of my Desktop Computer. at first I needed news papers to cover up the excess paint because I was using a Spray paint, which can spread faster and dry fast most specially if you put in the fan. The other night, I was nervous on spray painting my CPU because it might hit the other parts of it inside. but with determination, I was able to do it. Last Night, when catch called me I was done making a second coat on my CPU, DVD/CD rom, old Webcam and finally my mouse.but there was problem, i am having trouble touching my mouse as if there some sort of little ground to it after i spray painted it. Nope am not doing to spray paint my monitor because I am planning to buy an LCD monitor. Have a nice day.

Okay, did you paint the case { box, complete pc} itself or the damn cpu { central processing unit}?

I remember that my brother and cousin used to do that with their computer towers! My cousin painted his Canary yellow and put alien stickers on it. Remember when the old alien stickers were all the rage? Haha. It ended up looking very nice as I'm sure yours looks nice too. I'm sorry that the mouse did not turn out nearly as well. Maybe if you continue to use it you will dislodge whatever is making it stick.

Lol, where you are from and where I'm from must call things by different names or something. Around here the tower is what holds the CPU which is an itty bitty tiny chip that rests inside the motherboard which is a flat squarish thing that rests inside the tower. Of course no one really has towers anymore anyway and they could have changed the shape of the items that I have mentioned since I haven't built a computer since I was 17 years old! But that is clever to paint your tower to match the new monitor. Make it look nice while you wait to afford another. But, why don't you just get a monitor with the tower build in? That way you kill two birds with one stone.

Hello Dismalgrin, Well, I was able to put something else besides the paint, but also some plastics and electric tape. it seemed that the paint is increased mouse capability to cause more stress to my hand. I love it as it looked like new. I was doing the same with the other TOWER but unfortunately I ran out of paint. I liked it full black because I was preparing myself for the Black LCD monitor for future purchases.thanks and have a nice day

I think mouse should not be spray paint, especially those left and right button and the left side of the mouse will only fade to scratch those paints for frequent friction of thumbs and fingers.... especially those keyboard keys, those letter printed on every keys faded by frequent rubbing of fingers....

Hello mantis, Yeah, I think i made a mistake on that when I could have just bought a new mouse. now, I had to put a plastic and electrical tape around it so that it wouldn't get hurt as much.I am going to buy once I get the pay out soon. besides, mine still workng and my mom isn't complaining about it.
