My dad used 320 grit sand paper on it to get the old paint off, then he put a base coat of black, then faded in the blue and put a coat of clear coaton it. (its car paint)

Nice! I'm lovin the paintjob (and hating McDonalds!) its awesome all you need is a Low Pressure Kit and you're set... you should get a Bob Long Torpedo reg they're like 80 bucks so its much cheaper than a Palmer's Stab. man how come everyone else can afford LPK's and secondary regs when I can't even afford a nitrogen bottle?  -------------  Dream Marker: E-Mag!

| The palmers stabilizer from http://www.palmerspersuit.com - www.palmerspersuit.com And a bob long torpedo are some of the best ones out there. Torpedo seems more like speedball people reg. And palmers is woodsball. Get what you need to play the game! |

| hey man now you should paint you barrel i would say get you dad to paint it and this is my idea. Paint the front portion black and then fade to the blue so it fades together seemlessly |

I love the gun but theres something about it that doesnt look right. I think its the way that the sweet shiny blue just kinda stops and the dull unshiny black begins. Other than that its awsome 10/10. -------------

Sweet paint job man. I suggest you lose the drop though. It looks way too big and could be affecting your playing ability. Tryout a torpedo drop they are really sweet. -------------
