that1dood Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 (edited) So I was doing a little spring cleaning and found a box of parts I had accumulated over the winter. Took advantage of the beautiful weather this weekend and sprayed everything Duracoat flat OD green and slapped her together. Nothing special... PSA lower/LPK, Ace stock, Hogue grip.

ric Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 Is that paint any good, I've thought about spraying mine but I just like the black look, they look a little more aggressive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
that1dood Posted May 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 just like anything else, prepwork is key. I have seen people use DC and have horrible results that chips easily... A good degreasing with a scotchbrite pad and the right mix of hardner/DC makes a world of difference. The tan rifle has been on many many outings with thousands of rounds. That thing has gotten DIRTY, but a quick wipe down and it looks good as new. Next I plan on trying a different product called gunkote. Supposed to actually penetrate the first few layers of metal (think microns) and can be used on everything because it doesn't add any height to the working surfaces. Only problem with gunkote is that it's heat cured unlike the DC which doesnt require baking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ric Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 Oh ok, I might give it a shot one day when I get tired of the all black look. That color you went with looks really nice, make the scope stand out alot more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
