[QUOTE="Sendero_Man, post: 146736, member: 7517"] Thanks man.... I appreciate it. First off, I wipe everything down with a grease and oil cutter/remover. Second, I remove bolt and mask off all areas that I don't want painted. Examples: scope objectives, trigger area, bolt area, crown, scope numbers, etc. Next, I paint base color and let dry for 24 hours. Then do following layers with same 24 hour cure time. Last, pull all tape off areas and put bolt back in. I do regular cleaning for internal parts and exterior just gets a touch up paint job as needed. I use the Hunters Specialties paint kit. Has four colors and some stencils in it. I personally start with lightest colors and go darker colors progressively. Hope that helps ya out.... Let me know if you have any more questions....
