What’s you method and how’s it holding up ?

I have tried the crayon method. It is super easy to do but for me, not going to be durable enough as far as being able to put up with heat.

I have seen paint sticks used and it seemed to work well …….

Check this and tell me what you think

That's awesome rip!

 

[old mossy]

nice Rip. was that done with the same paint stick Oil mentioned?

 

[LAZY EYED SNIPER]

Sucks the crayon didn't work for you oli.

I've done two with crayon just like the one below over the last few years and they're still holding up well through heat and all kind of abuse...





Also did one with olive crayon on the logo and used enamel paint pens on the bullet pictograms...

Used some Testors model paint on my last one...

I bought the paint fill sticks from brownells. They worked fine but I have not had them long enough to give any estimate as to legevity at this point.

 

[oli700]

sweet guys thanks


RIP the GITD is cool as hell !

 

[oli700]

I took a chance with the enamel paint option. Not too bad for my first try…learning.
I chose flat red , flat white, I didn’t want too much white so I gave gloss black a try ….I wanted it 100% filled but couldn’t decided , it’s ok.

 

[ripjack13]

That looks good. Good job.

Thanx oli...it's holding up so far. I do forsee the mossberg internation words wearing off though. Only cuz they're raised not recessed. Although the numbers are recessed, If that happens I'll just scrape it off.
