I looked around in the forums and noticed I didn’t see any topics related specifically toward sharing pictures of firearms that have been spray painted. I have used Krylon and Rust-Oleum on several firearms for camo reasons but I’m fond of the way they turned out and would like to see others. I also like the fact its easy to remove and change up.
I’ve been “practicing” painting by using my kid’s Nerf guns. I’m kind of a perfectionist and haven’t worked up the courage to take a rattle can to a rifle that costs more than $49.99 yet. Have been experimenting with various ‘masking surfaces’ such as laundry bags, cord, hockey nets, etc. But, bask in the greatness that is Nerf camo…
NOTE: Some of the paintjobs have notable blemishes, skuffs, etc. …that’s because I was too impatient and flipped things over before they were dry, etc.
When I told the kids I was going to ‘camo paint’ their Nerf guns they were all, “Meh.” Once they saw them after they were all “YEAH!” It’s all part of my “measure twice, cut once” methodology. I’m going to work out the technique, color scheme, exact paint used (I must have about 40 different cans of paint, various but similar tones).
