Black Vz-58

Do it your self. Use truck bed liner with less of the gritty sand stuff so its not as textured. I have seen a few and they look fantastic.
 
It is illegal to change the finish from it's proper blue-gray enamel to Mall Ninja black parkerization. If you do this, then you will be sent to prison. Sorry; can't be done. ;)


P.S. Most of these men advising you otherwise are criminals; do not listen to them.
 
I would go easy with the thick paint stuff on metal parts.
Think heat dissipation.

I would also be very carefull with sand/gritty stuff.
If one abrasive particle will get lose
and it will find its way between moving parts of the action,
well... it's not good for your karma.
 
Maybe you could buy some of these Gunkote finishes and do it yourself.
But remember: surface preparation is 80% of the job.
Keeping the layers thin and taking your time between coats is the other 20%.
Good luck!

Scotty the bed liner trick i will give a try on somthing other than my gun 1st. Like DR LECTOR says it mite be thick. Corpus thanks for the tip but i done time for lesser reasons then that . PerversPepere eny idea where i can get gunkote ? I live in the GTA but i could always UPS the stuff. thanks to all who replyed
 
I don't know if you guys can get it at all, but I would suggest duracoat. It is very durable and very user friendly. I have had nothing but excellent results with it and it holds up better than most factory finishes.
 
If we are talking about painting parts of the action or BBL then I would scuff the original finish and paint over it. The original finish is very strong and resists rust and the like better then most park type finishes.

I watched a fellow actually burn the original finis off his VZ:ar15:

X2, VHT paints are incredible. They also make a flat black ceramic paint good to 2000 deg. F. when properly cured, I tried some on my Tri-z's heat shield. Just used a wire wheel to take the old paint off and spray bombed it with the VHT. A year later there is no rust, scratches, chips or anything. I tried scraping it with an old bearing race and it didnt even leave a mark! But to the OP, I cant get over how good the VZ looks in gloss black with nice beaver barf. I plan to scuff up the old lacquer and hit it with some lacquer primer followed by lacquer gloss black. Lacquer should have the best chance of adhering when prepped properly.

Look's amazing and also the ceramic coating act's as a rust inhibitor and comes in many different color's. Talk to Murdoc & you won't be disappointed.
