Is there a specific type of paint commonly used on gun parts?
I purchased a 4 sided mount (Could not seem to find just a three in the style I wanted) it is made of aluminum.
This went on my Kel-Tec Sub-2000 for the forward flashlight mounts.
In order to actually use it on this weapon however I had to remove the top rail so it would fold.
2 minutes with a hacksaw and file, viola, exactly what I wanted / needed.
However it is shiny on top now
Obviously there are paints used on these things to begin with, and suggestions on brand or type?
The thing is painted to begin with, but it appears to be some tough stuff, it is not anodized, and it is not parkerized...
Was thinking something like outdoor enamel or grill paint, engine paint?
