    Hi,

    Going to be painting my sis's PC. Im looking for Pink. I went into halfords today, but unfortunatley they do every other colour apart from pink! :wallbash:

    Wondering if there are any other stores, or if you might be able to order online?

    cheers,
    c_d

    Edit:

    I also would like to look for Acrylic Sheets. It'd be good if i could get hold of clear acrylic/frosted acrylic/tinted acrylic. The whole selection would be great, i'd just like to know the best cheapest place for Acrylic. I'd also like to know where to get Aluminium Rails (to build the structure of a pc) as i have a certain 'project' i'd be interested in doing. :)

    Or in my case when I needed pink, I went to focus, which you can't do it, but was a lot closer than B&Q

    I've found Wilkos to be the best for spray paint. And they're cheap :cooldude: - I just sprayed my mate's pc using a £2.79 can!

    Watch out for some cheap spraypaints, they often peel or go pale after a year or so, i have had that happen with some cheap spraypaints while other work just fine.
