Some buyers requested to give some colors on cf-29 toughbook and so here is my initial response. As a matter of fact, I already sold one locally when he saw this type of combination and designed but on different color combination which is black(graphite) on the center and pure white on outer side. Will try to do as much as i can.

This one is a combination of Blue and graphite. I want to know your honest comment. I don't wanna do it but due to some buyers and growing demand. It is a must,Lol

I agree with Blair. Looks good. How durable is the paint or is it powdercoated?

I have a couple of questions for you about the painting of the lids.

1) what kind of paint do you recommend?
2) how durable is it once you have painted it?

I would like to paint mine in OD Green 8)

I have not done a 29 but I have done a few 51's and 52's and they turned out great. I used Krylon and Dupli-Color "Perfect Match" auto paint , primer and 400 grit sand paper. This paint cost $4.00 - $8.00 range but it's good paint. I give it 4-5 coats and one I even used clear coat on it. The colors I have used so far are grey , black and purple
