The question: to paint or not to paint. . . pay more to paint?

[rjg333]

Keep it raw and nobody can complain, it is easy enough to choose your own color and spray it.

Steel gets shot and the customer will have to paint it in the end. Minty paint on a car, not on a steel target. Raw and customer can paint to their liking. Me I would not even both and would rather save the $$$.

The base paint I received mine was just perfect. Doesnt need more than this

 

[Shootin'Shaner]

I don't care if the paint is ugly, but like the fact that its covered and not getting rusty.

my 24"x24" plate was received very quickly and I am very happy with the speed and price of service! (although with a bit of a rough edge)

"Keep the occasional ugly paint job, people are just whiners."

yup....I agree with the above.

 

[LordEvilPepper]

meh.... i paint my targets every time i go to the range, sometimes a couple times at the range as well lol.

if you through some primer on it to stop rust for transport, cool. otherwise, leave it bare.

 

[chainmailleman]

I think raw dawg it. Make it easier on yourself. Those who have gongs are sure to have rattle cans too.

Raw metal - I’ll be spraying it with paint after spraying it with bullets anyways, might as well save yourself the time

 

[Radiohead]

Raw steel for me. No matter what, I paint mine white in the summer and black in the winter for contrast.

1 or 3. People who want a pretty paint job have obviously never shot more than 500 rounds on a steel target

Whoa... dude... 500 rnds!? you either miss a lot or only have 22lr

[JayFlip]

It's gonna get dinged and repainted anyway. Keep costs down

 

[Sinbad]

Have both, those that want to pay more for paint can. Sales will show the clear winner{no Paint}

 

[Joe Amorosi]

Sell 'em Raw Dog....

If you can't operate a spray can by yourself, then you shouldn't own a firearm......

 

[Sherlock Gnomes]

Quick paint that is ugly as I would rather that than rust.

 

[ColinD]

Raw dog

 

[mistersmith]

Toss in a can of rattle can black with every purchase?

 

[DiMP]

I'd vote for continuing to paint the "not supposed to be shot" items (sawhorse brackets, target stands, etc) but the paddles doesn't matter to me. Although, I will say, I received my dueling tree yesterday and it sure did look pretty to unwrap it in all it's painted glory

 

[silverfoxdj]

I say leave it bare metal. The paint's just going to get shot off, and then I'm going to rattle can it whatever bright color was on sale at Cambodian tire. If not painting makes it cheaper, I'm all for that.

+1...
