If you want your coat to last, duracoat or cerakote is a better option.

I love the worn look when the paint starts to chip off. Looks "battle proven" to me haha imo.

That looks great. Did you just spray a base coat and then use sponges for the rest?Had a makeover on my SBR. Out with the Vltor VIS upper receiver, and in with a BCM m4 upper and Noveske NSR.

My first try at painting a firearm...
The mag was just in there to keep paint out. I'm going to paint a bunch of mags to match soon, after some other rail covers I ordered come in.
Didn't paint the pistol grip because I'm not sure it will stick - I'll play around with that on a different grip when I do the mags & rail covers.
