Hi All,
Finally decided to go ahead and paint my carbine. I've been reading quite a bit here and watching as many videos as possible. I do have a few questions that I'm still unsure about if you don't mind. 1. Color- I will be using green and grown with the majority being green. Here in MD there is much greenery, so I figure keep it simple. If I want the result to be 75 or so percent green, is it better to start with a brown base, then the green? 2. Temperature- Really want to do this after the holidays, but don't want to wait until next summer. How important is the temperature/ humidity? Here it is already cold and as you know, MD is a pretty damp place. 3. Degreasing- Was going to hose it down with brakleen and let it dry before painting.... Is this adequate? See #4 4. Disassembly- Originally thought about painting everything together, but then thought I might have a better more appealing result if I remove the handguards, BUIS and Eotech and paint them separately. Any issues with paint under the mounts? Thanks for your help, -Coop |
