How is it holding up to heat and holster wear. I'm a fan. Thats a few hundred rounds picture .. not alot of holster use.. as for heat I am not sure seems fine. But its a very light coat of paint, just a mist.. and if it starts to wear alot I will just clean it off and re paint it again if I want. So I say DO IT

wow there's some serious talent on this board. Wish I had more time to go through all the photos (in time I guess).
I've been thinking I'd like to paint mine however it's my first AR and first build so it's kind of like getting a new car or motorcycle where you're not sure whether you want to put anything on it for fear of not doing it justice and making a "permanent" screwup. I know with camo, if you mess up, you can repaint if need be but I'd rather just do it right the first time. :) camo'd my paintball marker with a semi-tiger stripe in woodland colors and turned out fine but it was much smaller and less expensive than the rifle. one of these days I'll bite the bullet. What's the consensus when using rattle cans? (I have no airbrush and am not up to paying someone) I see Krylon and rustoleum which is my preferences as well, but how to make the paint remain mostly durable? I clear coated my paintball marker and over 3 years there are parts that are rubbing off still. No flaking, just rubbing off. PB Marker AR http://1drv.ms/1TQgIwJ |
