Well I see that took the sticky away about painting tippmanns so...

I already took all the lettering off

What paint do I use?

Regular paint?  Spray paint?

Spray paint, primer, lots of fine coats, then some clear coat over them.

Tape off the holes from the inside if you want, saves you from some sanding later.

First you need a primer. you apply that to your gun and let it dry to an hour. Then get some restoleum spray paint and paint your gun. Do a couple layers, then wait and hour and do a couple more. after you're down with painting your gun, let it site for about a week.

I did.. I stripped it down, then spray painted it with home hardware w/e olive green stuff, then used some clear coat over it, and it looks excellent.
