jcmacconnell 25 Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 Here's my zombie slayer after duracoating. The color is Tactical Coyote Brown on the factory stock (with SM buttpad) and on the Tapco Intrafuse handguard in Flat Dark Earth. The FDE was a close match but I am decided to duracoat it just to match. Anyone have any idea for replacing the leaf sight. It pretty much sucks? Thanks guys Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jcmacconnell 25 Posted March 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 I sanded the stock magazine and forend with medium sandpaper. Duracoated. Let dry about 12 hours then sanded down with ultra fine sandpaper to get rid of all the fibers that raise up. Then duracoat again and let cure for a few days to a week Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wade Pruetz 103 Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 Both guns look great! How does the sheen look, flat or satin? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jcmacconnell 25 Posted March 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 The TAPCO Intrafuse handguard isn't bad. I have the UTG quad rail on my Romanian AK47 and that one is pretty solid. The TAPCO is good for about 45 bucks. And my finish is the Tactical version of the Coyote Brown and doesnt have any sheen at all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jbmidnight 8 Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 nice job. Always sand to rough up the area so paint has something to bite to. Another good idea is to hit it with a adhesion promoter in a aerosol. You can always cover with a coat of flat clear laquer when done to give extra strength. Good job in the matching to.
