What I used on my case was regular flat black all purpose spraypaint BUT some edges can easily be scrapped off with your nail for example. My dad used the same paint but in gloss and it is much better. Good thing is for some reason it doesn't look very glossy so its perfect for case insides. 
Lol Danny, at first when I read the title of the thread I was like "wait, is Danny thinking on spraying paint around his room?"
If you know what I mean...

why not??? i've known lots of people do that. i don't see the harm unless the components are still in it when you paint it
i thought about doing it too because i dont like the grey/silver on the inside of the case. i was wondering though if any coating or anything would help prevent flaking or chipping?

It's called, modding. Paint job is one of the most important things in modding a case!

Right, Yeah. I wanted a matt Black finish, Hmmm. I'll have to have a look, Thanks, Omar!
Haha! Yeah, I'm going to spray my walls
Because I want to, Why wouldn't it be a good idea?

Yeah, I don't have anything in my PC
I know you can buy a clear coat paint, you spray it over, once you've painted it, Maybe that'll help?
yeah i highly reccomend people do it because it looks so much better that the boring grey.
first danny i would prime it,however i didnt bother and just gave it 2 coats of Plasticote and it doent scratch easy then.

I forgot to say that somehow, the gloss paint doesn't leave a glossy finish, more like matte, but it is more resistant than just plain flat black. So if you're worried about your inside of the case looking all glossy, don't worry it won't. It's so dark (even with cathodes) that you don't notice the difference between flat/matte or gloss. But you should spray gloss because in my experience, it's harder to take off which is good.
The main purpose of the clear coat is to make it look glossy (at least the regular clear coat, there maybe some clear coats that don't show up or something and are just for durability) so if you want a flat matte black kinda finish, I wouldn't spray clear coat. The clear coat leaves a stronger gloss finish than regular gloss paint so that's why I would suggest not to use it.
Hey Danny, new idea. Why not metallic green? It'd look sick!
