If you own a black marker and want to add a little custom look to it without painting it follow these steps: 1. Take out the screws that you want to dress up. 2. Put the screws in an electric drill. 3. While spinning the screws, sand down the heads a little for a chrome look. 4. If you want a little extra shine, sand down a little more with a sheet of computer paper. ------------- ]

if u have a sweet gun and it can shoot fast and is upgraded a lot who cares what ur screws look like. its like import cars. they put the body kits and decals on it and which i think look cool but they dont make the car go ne faster. in my opinion i would rather have a sleeper import car. in which no body uprgardes just engine. ------------- 98 custom e-bolt low pressure kit dye drop forward 68ci 3000psi glass fiber tank halo b 10" custom products barrel double finger trigger vertical feed |

Is the paint on the screws the only defense against rust? ------------- Video: http://pbvids.gamesxposed.com/files1/RTP.1116548567.wmv - My Automag RT Pro ::: http://boydsters-pics.mypicgallery.com/ - My Gallery ::: |

You betcha. Give it a try and find out. Like Tippmann would put expensive alloy screws with rust inhibitors on a cheap gun like a Model 98 or A-5. ------------- Which falls faster, a lead ball or your IQ after reading some of these posts? http://www.pennstatepaintball.com" rel="nofollow - PSU Paintball |
