steve0146 Posted February 23, 2015 Report Share Posted February 23, 2015 After cleaning up the gun from the last shoot of the season, I thought I would give it a paint. For no reason other than I fancied doing it. Most of my shooting is done in reeds / marsh but also some summer stubble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadeye18 Posted February 23, 2015 Report Share Posted February 23, 2015 What paint did you use fella?was it easy to do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve0146 Posted February 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2015 Its Krylon spray paint in Camo colours. I stripped the gun, cleaned all oil etc from it and sprayed each part from a distance. It dries in 15 mins and becomes chip resistant after 7 days. Or so it says on the tin. I sprayed it Khaki to start with, let it dry and then wrapped clingfilm around bits of it. Then sprayed the olive on. You could make all sorts of patterns by adding real foliage and spraying around it I suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
