Beautifull! How did you paint the enclosure? After you had etched it?

I am working on a tutorial but the simple version is:
Paint with rattle can
Wetsand very lightly with 1500 grit paper with a small sanding block
Clear coat

Cody

But you did that before or after you did the chemical etch?
Also, looking forward to read your tutorial!
