I have built 4 Ar's and am now going to build my first 80% lower. Does anyone have any advice on putting a finish, whether black, camo on the lower once I have finished drilling and tapping. Thanks in advance.

Shameless bump to the top.

I am planning to paint mine... I got an order from DSA recently with some FAL parts and they sell a pretty slick looking camo system... Paint makes it easier to hide any flaws especially with castings like mine that had minor flaws when cast...

Here is some info on DSA's website..

The pics in the catalog look really good!
