Surface prep is the key to a durable finish........all parts to be painted must be free of oil/grease.......some finishes will need to be scuffed or sand blasted in order for paint/coatings to adhere..........

Some examples of paint jobs I have done over the years.......

Thanks!!!

All done with hand cut stencils that I made..........there weren't any of the paint stencil kits that are available today........I was one of the very first to start painting digital camo back in 2004......

The only paint job I've done... Home made stencils though!! lol I used the Krylon Ultra flat camo cans

I've built a few spud guns in my time, but that one takes the cake. Nice work. And you can't get better than the old school camo paint job. Well done.

I've only used Krylon on one scope and will not waste my time with it again. I lightly sanded it to prep it then put a few coats of flat earth on and let it dry for a week. The finish was not durable and chipped very easily.
I would either pay someone to do it right or at least spend the money on good supplies.

I guess the good thing about Krylon is that it is really easy to touch up.

Here's mine. The fellow who did the work for me used Armacoat.

It's hydrographics. Not paint.

Send it to a shop who does it pretty simple.

Or be brave an do it yourself and buy a kit. Quite easy in principle. But it's delicate an intricate work. Something I'm not good at lol.

It isn't cheap either just so you know. Good luck in whatever you choose.

I love the look of a used gun.. dont know why.. but i'll spray it up a couple of colours then once dry ill drag it across the driveway, some riverstones in the garden.. rub it with some plastic garden mesh, some windbreak, etc.. different textured materials.. comes out pretty nice usually..
