How can you safely paint your gun? (Not jam anything up or clog up the barrel?) Spray paint or not? What would you recommend as far as paint? |

You need to take it appart before you paint it. Lightly sand it, use alcohol to remove all oils, grit and dirt, hang each half with a coat hanger and spray it(just the outside) with Rust-oleum spray paint. After putting about 4-5 coats on it(if you put the coats on too thick, it'll drip and look like it's crying lol), let it dry completely for about 4 days before messing with it. Here's mine after doing what I just described:
It's a peen hammered look paint by Rusto-eum. It dries to a hard finish and not very likely to get scratched too easy - |
