#

oh in case the plasti dip ruins the shroud?

tall briar
#

It doesn't ruin it

#

But you do need to lightly sand it to get the plasti dip to stick

zenith oasis
#

ive heard plastidip ruining the finish on some car panels, not sure if that applies to gpu shrouds

#

I see

tall briar
#

Not sure.

zenith oasis
#

and you did how many coats?

tall briar
#

I was told that RMA is way easier with the original stuff unpainted

zenith oasis
#

Yeah that makes sense

tall briar
#

Probably 3 full "Coats" then one super light final spray for touch up

zenith oasis
#

Okay great thanks!

#

Im probably gonna paint the backplate and fans on mine

tall briar
#

I would not do the fans

#

Very easy to fuck them up

zenith oasis
#

yeah ive weighed the pros and cons, balancing issues etc etc

tall briar
#

Minor weight variance will ruin em

zenith oasis
#

I'm willing to risk it personally

tall briar
#

Buy a spare set of fans lol

zenith oasis
#

how much you think a spare shroud + set of fans + backplate costs?

tall briar
#

Pricing on shrouds and backplate is all over the place

#

A set of evga fans is like $30

#

I got my shroud for $40 but I see ebay listing for $300 that sold

zenith oasis
#

oh jeez

#

alright

tall briar
#

Yuh

#

zenith oasis
#
