Default Paint adhesion problems?

Sometimes primer isnt enough when it comes to painting some plastic and metal parts. You get the bad boy painted up and what happens? it gets scratched the minute you set it down. What and Eye soar. For those of you painters you might apriciate some adhesion premoter (ppg is the best). You can find this at any local paint store. What you do is after you get it all sanded down, tac it off with some tack rags (or a damp towel for you not so inclined painters). Load up your paint gun with a lil adhesion premoter, Spray on 2-3 THIN coats and let dry for a couple minutes before applying primer. This will greatly extend the life of your narly case. Enjoy the advice. If you have any other questions (since I work with a painter of 20 years) dont be affraid to ask. Ill teach you all the lil tricks and trades. :0)

When I do up this old server tower (If I can get everything lined up properly) Im thinking all black and the bezel all silver. Now I'll get that crap you mention instead of using normal primer..

I should get a lil section to help people. Also hawken you still use primer (preferably a low temp primer) you just use the adhesion premoter before you prime.

Nope..2x184=368 (I upped it by 1mhz the other day) When it boots, says DDR 368, in the sisotf mem benchmark, I get 2.7 sometimes 2.8 Ghz/s Beleive me, it runs slightly faster than PC2700..

I would chuck an @ in front of the 366 in your sig.

This:

PC 2100 DDR Ram (366 MHz DDR)

Looks to me like you are confused.

This:

PC 2100 DDR Ram (@ 366 MHz DDR!!!)

Looks like you overclock.
