Hausi 517 Posted February 18, 2020 Yeah mate, I dig that weathering, looks very natural. Just give it enough time to dry before you wear it, I can already see it coming off on your chest where the shoulder pouch rubs on the armor. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Funny enough it sat for 48hrs before I put it on, any recommendation that will help prevent the paint from rubbing off? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hausi 517 Posted February 18, 2020 That sometimes depends on the maker of your armor and whether it is acrylic capped ABS, as paint doesn't stick very well to the material. Actually 48 hours should be fine. Some add a final layer of clearcoat or even hairspray, maybe try it on a scrap piece a part of your armor which is less noticeable, just in case you aren't happy with the result. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
