Krylon long term wear report
« on: June 19, 2010, 07:57:11 PM »

Well it has been 4 months since I shot the OD on my Colt furniture. The Krylon Fusion Camo spray cans have been as advertised. This stuff does bond VERY well. I have had some pencilpoint-sized chips on some edges. What I did was lightly scuff the affected area and clean the piece very good, then reshoot. The reshoots have not chipped again. This is after LOTS of shooting and handling. My new Smith and Wesson got the same scheme, so a matched set now is on hand. When cleaning do not allow Hoppes #9 on this paint as it will remove it....If you are fairly careful handling your guns, and careful with the chemicals I would recommend Krylon.

I tried Krylon and it gets sticky the longer I grip it. I striped it off three times and the same thing happened. >:( :confused:

HogMan sorry to hear you are having difficulties, I haven't had the stickiness sensation.

Wonder if it's a body chemistry thing. I knew a diabetic who's sweat would dissolve watches and such
