I have a few of these grey A1 uppers on black lowers.

starting to bug the crap out of me. I'm going to spray some teflon on them.

What is the general concensus?

Grey or black A1 rifles??

if you have a few...try some camo dura coating. but if grey or blck, they both look good to me.

spraying gray teflon on it, probably wouldn't hold up. there is a product out there that you can bake on a finish to match the upper.......can't remember who makes it's, norwood or something like that

you could always KG coat it. It seems to hold fine on mine.

I don't see much point in doing it any other color.

Stickman...

I have seen your rigs...and man are they awesome...
Can't you just KG or Duar coat it...or will the finish not match?

I copied this off the Norrells website...

GRAYISH-BLACK Flat
Dark gray-black coloration with a flat appearance. This duplicates the appearance of the early original Colt AR-15/M-16 finish. This is the same product that is purchased from us by the U.S. Military to refinish Colt M-16's.

MAI- My work is nothing special, but thankyou. Norrells is as close as I think you will get.
