Re: X7 redone

I'm just curious, because i have never researched that kind of thing, is there some kind of stenciling used when doing custom camo painting or is it all done with tape and stuff?
I'm kind of interested in fixing a few things up with a camo finish

Re: X7 redone

Well here is how i do i hope this helps.First take every thing apart and sand with 400 hundred grit sandpaper if its plastic sand it till its dull.sorry this is what you will need.Then spray some adhesion promoter let dry 1 minute and spray some primer 2 or 3 thin coats 5 minute dry time between coats.Then wet sand lightly to remove roughness and dry with a clean non greasy towel.Then lay your base color,while its driying cut some stencils then it should be dry to the touch if so start laying your stencils.Then spray your second color,cut more stencils while it dries.repeat with last color remember over lap you stencils a little in some spots so they crossover each other. Put a couple coats of clear and your all set.
