Another rattle can paint job

[Abcdj]

Picked up a threaded .22 to go with a suppressor that is still in jail. Thought it needed some color. Had the scope and rings laying around. It is way over kill I know.

Ever since the Samsung problems. I have had to use tapa crap to post pictures. They are awful sorry. Try again

I am no pro by any stretch. This is my 5th time to do it.. I just like messin around with stuff. There are lots of how to videos on youtube you can watch.

I did the scope and stock individually.

1. Remove barrel and trigger assembly
2. Lightly sand the stock. Just so it adheres better. This stock was pretty textured so I skipped sanding
3. Wipe it clean
4. Tape off anything you don't want paint on. Barrel channel, magazine hole, scope lenses, adjustment knobs.
5. Clothes hanger to hang the gun by the swivel knob and scope around the taped turret
6. What ever your primary color is (tan here) needs to go on first then dry. Second coat and dry.
From here out use your imagination on shapes and colors as you want to see them. If ya mess up start over.
7. Use the black marbleized paint and put on a few swips of it. It comes out like silly string. I would get a piece of cardboard and practice the swips vertically or horizontally. I just like the spider web look.
8. Use the base (tan) and lightly go over a few spots of the marbleized black and dry.
9. I use a camo green where the darker places are in the picture. Not much just a few swipes here and there.
10. Then put on the marbleized paint to your liking and let dry.
11. Two light coats of clear coat and dry
12. Reassemble and mount scope

The whole process took about 3 hours. Taping and drying are the longest part.

I got the marbleized paint off Amazon the rest I had sitting around.

The top gun came factory painted. I did the bottom one myself. Guess I like this look!

Have fun

Where did you get the 22?

[Bassdeer]

Thanks, never heard of marbleized paint. Was wondering how you got the silly string look.

[Abcdj]

Where did you get the 22?
