Hi guys.
I have a laptop that I use for labs in the university and programming. It has two years and a half and it has suffered the day work, some scratches are the only damage but it doesn't look good.
The model is Samsung NP-R50
I'm thinking on some paint work, with spray because I haven't an airbrush and didn't know how to use it. The theme is a surprise but to do something I need to take some parts away. I need the service manual, the one who explains how to repair de system (where the screws are and so). I've been searching a lot (I swear) but didn't find anything but the user manual. I claim for help, please!!

I'm not having any luck finding a service manual either, maybe post some photos of the laptop, and we'll see if we can help you disassemble it. :)

You can try and go here (http://laptopsinfo.net/index.php?c=4627) Fill out the form @ the bottom of the page and they say they'll e-mail you the Manual.

Better then nothing...

Xpirate: good try, but that's the user's manual, only explains how to work with the laptop. I need to disassemble it!

I've found some pics here:

The LCD back cover is the first piece I want to paint, I'm still using it so when I take it appart I must be fast.

EDIT: Thanks CrazyBillyBob, I've tryed it this afternoon. 24 to 48h... lets use the give-me-spam email account :P

I've bought it because it was impossible to find. I did some photoshop to show what I want to do.

this is the back of the laptop:

I'm thinking on this, urban camo:

Or even more difficult, digital urban camo:

I don't know how to do it. Still thinking of it. What do you think?

I'm still thinking what to do on the other parts of the laptop. But for painting I'll go with spray because I haven't an airbrush and didn't know how to use it :P
More opinions for the paint theme?
