Well, the texture is working out great, except for the part of the black paint covering the hammer-finish texture. For whatever reason, the black matte paint won't cover all of the the texture. I may have to seal it with clear first, then paint over.

Also, when I previously installed the computer and tested, the startup/sleep/wake sequence did not seem to work. Turns out, the Mac Pack cable had a green wire that leads to the Mac Mini power switch to invoke sleep that was not properly crimped into the connector, so the sleep signal didn't get sent to the Mac. I'll have to request a replacement.
