So im thinking im going to color fill my lower. Anyone have some tips and tricks? YouTube is full of people doing it and ways to do it, I am going to be using paint to fill mine. Color ideas? Everyone seems to go red and white, im thinking Lime Green for the letters and purple for the Logo? Maybe red on the fire mark? I like getting ideas from people before i go to town.
Also, how do you post pictures in here? This is my receiver |

Here's a link to an archived thread that should answer all your questions. There are several different methods. Welcome to Arfcom.

Sorry no pics, but I'd try the finger nail polish first. pick a color scheme and go to it. A lot easier to remove if you don't like the results. Use crayons!!!!! And WD40 for prep, its cheap, surprisingly durable and changeable/f*ckup-able 
Here is my color fill...My build w/colorfill |
Grease pencils/china markers and an oiled up rag. They're cheap, water resistant and removable if you screw up or change your mind. Oh, and the fact they are 3 for a $1.00 at Ace Hardware helps, you can get Red, White, and whatever other color you want for a buck.

Wait about 6 months and get it out of your system. When I got my first AR color fill looked cool so I had a friend do my lower for me. 6 months and a couple more rifles later and the color fill just looks kind of silly. For this exact reason I suggest going with the grease pencils. |
