Far better than paint IMHO If you use your rifle for hunting, forget about the chrome paint as well. I have used a matt black and gloss black spray paint, but I would have much rather had it re-blued or Blacked again. There are products that you can buy to do it properly, but I cant comment on them because I've not used them. If you must paint the metalwork, go for a matt black spray Phantom Quote Link to post
poacherkev 64 Posted March 29, 2010 Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 For about £12.00 you can have the metal work powdercoated black ..ring around a few local powder coaters and see what they charge as its ten times better then spraying it.. Quote Link to post
