Jeez I'd buy a wholly white finkpad
I'd probably make it dirty as fuck in a couple of weeks as well.
because I'm not dumb enough to fall for the chinkpad meme
That icy blue
Really wish there was an easier way to do this because that looks sick.

dont know how to feel about this, kinda cool but i would've personally have it
>>61783325
You painted the fucking battery case? You're retarded.
>>61783249
Mmm shit I never thought how sexy a white thinkpad would be until now
>>61783249
but i did
only the keyboard though

not even the guy you replied to, but was this painted by a quadriplegic with tourette's?
>>61783337
Taping was the most tedious part, the whole process took a few hours. Just disassembly, taping, and spray paint
>>61783249
How do you paint it so that it's smooth and doesn't peel?
>>61783468
It looks fine from the outside, that whole part is covered when plugged in
>>61783491
Tiny bit of 320 grit sanding, multiple coats from at least 8 inches away.
because i dont have a thinkpad
>>61783249
I've been thinking about lacquering my thinkpad for that bento box feel
>>61783368
How do myself senpai?
>>61784428
>remove the keys one by one

>apply a couple of coats of spray paint

>>61783779
they're like $60 anon for a good shitposter.
>>61785196
naah, i have a fairly good laptop and a good pc, i'm not in need of a thinkpad. but i would buy one if my laptop crashes
>>61783249
Laziness. I've been planning on it since 2006. Yours looks nice!
>>61783249
from far away it looks decent but that battery pack bro... bro.... WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!
you fuged up hard there
Should've put on a clear coat and polished it. All comments about quality of the job aside, this is going to look very bad in a month or two.
its only cool because you have a pretty good desktop too, if it was running windows like this it would look really out of place i think
would actually look very cool in all-white if you could get it new like that but all that work and the large risk of fucking it up somehow plus not looking right with black trackpad/keyboard, bleh.. u dun goof'd op
>>61783249
should've gone for OWO pink

Because I just bought it. $110 refurbished.

>E series
You may as well throw it in the trash.
I have an old 600E, the vinyl is thorn to shreds, how do I remove it completely without scratching the plastic too much?
>>61783403
Looks like fucking shit, honestly.
>>61788657
I needed a computer, and everything else they had were crappy Toshiba and Acer laptops with lesser specs.
>>61788020
I didn't know they made E series with full keyboards
I don't know how to feel about it
>>61785196
$60 where, and which models?

MODS please ban people who do this shit.
Them niggas jus hatin main.
>>61789344
I like it so far. I am eventually going to put an SSD in it just because I fell for the meme.
>>61788020
>Windows vista
>E series
You could've bought a T420 for about ten more dollars, and it would outperform that computer in every category.
>>61783249
What kind of tape did you use to cover the logos? I'm interested in doing this to my x220t

It's not Windows Vista. It's an i5, 8GB RAM and Windows 7 PRO on it.
>>61789441
Not the anon, but it's Windows 7 with a smaller taskbar. Notice the little "show desktop" button in the bottom right corner of the screen. Also, the window tabs have round edges in Vista.
>>61783249
Bad at arts and crafts and I don't care about aesthetics plus i don't want to fix future replacement parts.

OP, you fucking downie, did you use interior paint to paint plastic?
The reason we use cheap as fuck emulsion acrylic is because our walls are flat and there's less stress points to chip the coat.
All of those unprotected corners are giving me anxiety.
Also take note of how grainy and pitted it looks. OP only made one coat, and likely used an xbox huge brush or a paint roller to do the job.
For fuck's sake, interior paint was not formulated to adhere to plastic either. You use spray paint, or specialty craft plastic paint, to paint plastic.
>>61783368
nice
>>61786276
o-w-o you massive faggot. Also, Pink and white would be a nice aesthetic. That or full neon.
>>61789899
Because that way all electronics will match each other.
>>61783249
I did it turned out shitty.
https://youtu.be/ZoG-nZdtTTA
i did
meet the late snowpad
was gutted for parts when my T42 had some serious shit go down
rip
>>61791736
it was a pretty R52
but i got it for like 10$ and it wasnt worth keeping a shell of a laptop around when i had to move, so it got tossed
Best paint for doing this? Also would you need smaller screwdrivers than the standard phillips head?
>>61783249
Because the end result would look like the abhorrent piece of rattle canned shit you just posted.
>>61791736
>>61791764
That actually looks pretty cool.
>>61789899
Black is modern. White is beige-tier now.
I painted my winkle?
>>61783325

Loving this so far but still think you could've stenciled the Tux sticker on
>>61783368
It looks really neat but why?
>>61789363
Probably x200 or something
>>61783249
I don't know how to paint.
Plus I live in a hot humid climate. I jave a feeling that won't do any sort of paintjob any good. I'm afraid the paint might get sticky.
>>61791736
>>61791764
looks better than op, lines are clearer and the non painted keyboard doesnt stick out that much
>>61791736
>>61791764
Looks good anon. I'm trying this when I upgrade, and flash my laptops.
>>61789586
wtf, $110?
I5? What's bad about the E-serie?
>>61789480
What >>61789794 said

Essentially a rebadged lenovo with a trackpoint

I'm not going to believe that OP used spray paint and it came out looking oatmeal.
I've never known of any idiot to decide to sand spray paint, so there is chance he's telling the truth. But, that doesn't look like spray paint.
i can't believe this cunt is so rump roasted lmao
