basically it is brush painted with standard enamel model paint...(boltgun metal ) is the name of the paint....got it at a local hobby store....took me about 10-15 mins to paint....has now dried 24 hrs...seems ok to handling...not sure how it will stand up to cleaning or shooting....sorry pics are a little blurry....lighting was kinda dim...didnt wanna use flash...

looks funky lol

That looks fantastic. I've always been a fan of silver slides. I may have to look in to this. There's another guy, can't remember his screen name, that brushed off the black finish on his barrel. The result is a finely polished silver barrel and a black slide. I like it.

Please post results as to how yours stands up to shooting, cleaning, etc.

Looks pretty good. It will be interesting to see how the paint will hold up to gun cleaners though.

I actually used fine grit sandpaper to 'polish' the barrel and slide.

Nice work Max.

That is really interesting. I prefer black myself, but I can see what you like about your pistols look

 

[Thayldt21]

I agree with waltham,

Looks nice and very nice job,

I look forward to te olive drab however, I thiink that will stand out nicley.

I do like that two tone look. I may try something like that. I wonder if I could get a nickel finished paint then laquer it?

 

[Guest]

Interesting look.

 

[8andsand]

Does gun kote make a color lke that? It would take some prep but the finish would be pretty much bullet proof

 

[Guest]

finishes

i'm not sure but i have found some flat metallic engine paint that i will eventually redo it with.... this was just to see if i liked the looks...and i really do like 2 tone pistols....

This one was stripped and polished to mirror shine (not mine):

That was me, but I lost the photo.

 

[Guest]

That sucks...but please try and take another pic, let us see it again, if you will.

 

[hipoint.nut]

I only pollished my barrel because the paint was flacking off, but I'll take another picture.
