Painting my Dell E1705 ... any update?

Matt3116 · 03-14-2009, 02:26 AM

I am thinking about painting my dell laptop and I would like to take all the plastic off to do it. I don't want to get paint on anything but that plastic. If anyone knows how to take all the plastic off, or have a link to something that shows me how to take it apart, it would help alot.

Here is a link to the service manual for your laptop. It tells you how to take the laptop apart.
