Hi Guys,


Just a quick question what do you use to protect the paint job when done as I want to do this on a semi auto shotgun for the foreshore but it will get a bit of rough treatment so I need the paint protected.

Laquer wont to cos its far too shiny


Any ideas very welcome


Cheers

Hi

The best one I've used is >THIS< one. I get it from the 'local' model shop. Try your local model (that's if you do have one)

Just make sure you really activate the can first. Use light coats, numerous times & then leave to set/harden for a few days.

Regards
Paddy.

There's two types Matt & Gloss.

What I do is only put a gentle coat at a time. I've done a few with this product & they have been fine, apart from one but that was labeled up wrong .

aggitate mate, just stand there calling it smart price for 20 min, that should do the trick
