Who makes the best OD Green spray paint?
Posted on 3/9/13 at 9:12 am

Think I'm going to add a little color to my M&P 15-22 but I want to go with OD Green instead of the Flat Dark Earth Tan.
Any suggestions on which paint would be best for use on a firearm? I'd only be painting the stock, grip, magazines, sites and maybe accenting the edges of the rails (or I'll get covers and paint them)

it would have to be a air dry, as putting a poly base gun in the oven might not turn out well.

Ive never cerakoted a plastic gun but there are a number of companies that will Cerakote a polymer gun. Whatever is the melting point of polymer, its high enough to safely apply Cerekote. The Cerekote instructions recommend baking the piece at 200 deg for 30 min.

Krylon is what we use to spray all our kit.
It won't hold up as we arse cerakote but it's not bad plus cheaper and will give you that cool guy "weathered" look
If you want something that looks factory quality go with cerakote though.

Yeah krylon makes a FDE that is pretty spot on

Some cerakote colors don't have to be baked on FWIW

Check their website. It'll let you know if it has to be baked on

Hmmmm...
From the description on Bronells site:
Think the plastic on an M&P 15-22 could stand up to 200 degrees for 2 hours?

Apply with an airbrush or HVLP touch-up gun for a smooth finish. Oven Cure Kit requires oven baking for 2 hours at 250° for optimal cure or 1 hour at 300° for quick cure. For heat-sensitive materials such as plastics, a 2 hour cure at 200° is adequate.

Duracoat also makes a nonbaked version.

That was done with Aluma-Hyde II and a sponge.
