has anyone tried the spray in bedliner sold in aerosol cans as a firearm finish?

I think it would be good for protecting your rifle when you launch it down the driveway. |

some yayhoo rhino lined his entire HMMWV
it's a gen 1 civilian version, but still |

That's funny, I did the barrel on an AR with no troubles. Used the duplicolor brand iirc, it was a thinner base and fine grit.
Sorry. No pics as the upper is not in my possession, but it is holding up well, and looks good. |

It's a fantastic way to level off the irregularities left behind by the Dremel.

I use it on some of my grips and hand guards as well. It adds a lot of grip, like spray on grip tape almost.
I also used it on the outside of some ak mags that I refinished. Ill be doing that with all of them eventually. so far it has worked on wood, metal, and plastics. |

Be sure to soak the stock in saltwater for that nice driftwood effect.

Only weird thing I ever tried on a stock was High Temp black crinkle engine paint. Worked great on an old Smith Limited M-14 yucky brown fiberglass stock. |

Quoted: It works pretty well on wood. That is, if you want some thing that looks like a synthetic stock, and has a very abrasive finish. I did a Mosin-Nagant stock with Duplicolor bedliner. Then used Krylon to provide camo coloration. http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm90/grendelbane6/mosincam.jpg People either love it or hate it. There is no bedliner on the metal parts, only on the wooden stock. The Krylon makes the bedliner feel quite a bit smoother. Straight bedliner is pretty rough. Should be good for touching up those old fiberglass M1a stocks, too. In fact, I think that is almost what they did. View Quote Good job, Bubba. |

Wait, then how are you supposed to tacticool it throwing it down on the driveway?
|
|
I sprayed some on some magazines in the past, but never on a gun. I feel like it would be too abrasive.

I'm probably going to "Raptor Line" one of my rifles. You Nancy boys can cry about it if you want. Once I get done I might throw it down the driveway and video it so you have something else to hump the internet about.

Honestly, if I taped off the rifle and only sprayed the parts where my hands gripped it, then I'd be fine with it. But I feel like if I sprayed the entire rifle, it'd be too rough on my face and it could scrape up my gear and clothing if it was hanging from a sling. |

Doesn't Remington make a bastardized 870 which is basically this? And doesn't it supposedly suck a bag of flaming dicks?

He doesn't want to scrape the multicam off his....Well, I don't even know, but I'm sure it's multicam. |

View Quote if it could be bought from ANY other company it would be an option. |

Drop off a couple cans in Kyber Pass and you'll put the Paki tape industry out of business

Actually, I made a custom freefloat tube for a Varmit build I put together for my buddy. I sprayed it with multiple coats tan truck bed liner to give it some grip and a little insulation from the cold. http://i933.photobucket.com/albums/ad172/sureshot31/DSC01161.jpg http://i933.photobucket.com/albums/ad172/sureshot31/DSC01201_zps7c816bc3.jpg Turned out nice, kind of like a Hogue overmolded. Covered all the Dremel marks too! View Quote i still see some dremel action nice looking rifle, how does it function with no bolt and charging handle? |
