Great looking colors ! Curious to know painting method used ?
thanks

The paint is actually self-etching primer. It adheres to any surface and stays on really well. I put about 3 coats on. My original intent was to dip these in woodland camo, but they looked so clean I decided to keep them that way.

I dig that set up big time...love the color and the lenses really set it off! Well done.

I haven't seen any but there may be some. All I did was take the lenses out, pop the icons off, removed the arms, primed it and let it dry, spray painted it and let that dry. reassemeble and you're done.

I just hydro dipped these in woodland camo. I couldn't get it out of my head. I'll post pics after they dry.
