Who can guess what this is going to look like when it's done? First coat - white.

Good guess, but nope.

It's a base coat for a whole different color.

One of the only base coats you will never see, in any way. But you need it to make the other color stand out...


And good one ~~~ Casper...

I'd say either Pink or Yellow.  

I used to build model kit cars before and I always used white base (primer) when doing light colors.

Well, with kgcoatings white is a must before yellow, but I dont think a polymer frame can be baked. Hmmmmm.....

Well, I see you are in Wisconsin, and if the finish coat is really yellow, I am going with a Green Bay Packer helmet???

I seen  john Deere gun, but would anyone want a football them gun? Hmmmm, dont know.

The Browns are horrible, and the Bengals are like 0-7, but a nice tiger stripe gun would be cool for this Ohioan.

Damn, now I will be up all night driving myself nuts. haha

DING DING DING DING!!!!! WE GOT A WINNER!!!!!

White is a MUST when doing PINK properly! It pops off the gun much brighter!

I'm doing this one for a friend, who's wife survived breast cancer. Putting the pink ribbons on it in a darker pink, then light pink on the whole gun. Then some black on the front grip.

I'll send some pics as I go!

Nice green mags!

My guess on the white basecoat was that you were going to do glow-in-the-dark.  I know the "sight-glo" paint requires a white base coat (and then clear over, but that's SOP).
