scuff up paint with green scrubber

clear if desired

That should give you a nice paintjob.

Use automotive paint.

Don't listen to tippMANntech unless you want a half assed paintjob.

when ur all done the painting, clear coat it then put it in the oven to bake it on. I dd ths to my aluminum spyder trigger frame. its not as good as anno but it will hold.

:agree:

its not that much more work, you will be please that you took the time to add primer, etc.

or just send it somewhere and get it powdercoated for around 40-50 bucks.

Either get it annodized or get it Powder coated, unless you plan on upgrading guns soon then just use spray paint or something..

you cant really anno a tippy, it has been done but it came out with a lava lamp effect

[tippMANntech]

spending 100 bucks on a paint/powdercoat anno jobon a tippmann is like putting a house of kolor paintjob on a 85 buick


spray paint works fine if you buy a good color scuff it up before painting and know how to spray

[p8ntba11dude89]

you can get your gun powdercoated for around 20 bucks :rolleyes:
