Airsoft Canada - View Single Post - Painting a pistol slide

Aper · September 2nd, 2013, 15:51

Hey all,

I'm about to paint the metal slide of my WE Desert Warrior to black to make a half & half black and tan concept. I know a lot of types of paint, but I wonder what could be the best type of paint for a metal slide that's durable and won't wear off too quick ? Also, would I need to sand the slide for a better grip for the paint ? Forgot to mention that I don't want any glossy paint; I would like to keep it either satin black or flat-like black to best match the OEM paint.

either that or finding someone who has a black metal slide that fits my WE DW.

Thanks all !
