johng4490 Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 I am not the original owner of this suit and I do not have the contact info of who weathered it, so I was hoping someone could tell me how to weather the new ab buttons to match everything?

Jango 5204 Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 Only 3 buttons starting at the top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FIVE Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 Yeah, you need to remove one of the buttons... I'd get a set of 3 buttons from Troopermaster so they're the right size too. But... to weather it I'd say just get some craft paint the same color. Take the piece into Lowe's (or similar store) and have them color match you a bit of "test paint" if you want even. Since it's just the button area it won't have to be dead on to match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johng4490 Posted December 6, 2010 Author Share Posted December 6, 2010 I'm only going for CRL, not deployment right now. And working with what I am already have, so the four looked best to me. I posted this issue on my local board to and have been led to conclude its a paint from walmart, so I will probably color test and see if I can just get paint to match. Thanks!

pandatrooper Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 Make sure to get acrylic paints, and not tempera or watercolors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
