Whiskeyfish Posted November 19, 2018 Report Posted November 19, 2018 Cue pity party music. I been looking at the UBR G2 butt stocks since they were released. I like them, but I want to change up the colors. I'm not finding options to mix/match. And I'm not about buying two in different colors to change things up for what I want. I'm looking for a Black / Foliage mix. Short of buying two, is there anywhere to buy one as I'm wanting? Probably pay through the azz to get one in a configuration like I'm wanting.
edgecrusher Posted November 20, 2018 Report Posted November 20, 2018 Or, you can spray it. Rattle can it. Cheap, easy, and when it wears (won’t be for a while) change it up...

What paint would adhere, without wiping it down with a de-glosser?
edgecrusher Posted November 20, 2018 Report Posted November 20, 2018 I would use something to prep. Carb cleaner would work. Wipe clean. https://www.krylon.com/products/camouflage-paint-made-with-fusion-for-plastic-technology/ Ive used Duracoat with success. More expensive and claims to hold up better but I am not worried about that so much. I honestly feel that if SHTF, it doesn’t matter what my guns look like as long as they are fed and go pew.
Whiskeyfish Posted November 20, 2018 Author Report Posted November 20, 2018 If SHTF color don't mean jack. It's the black abyss in the safe, and strong sense of going color blind, that I'm trying to liven up. Black wears the same color inside. There's cliche in that comment. LOL. In all honesty, aside of that, I don't GAF what color it is.

You can go 3 hours if you want, but 2 does the trick, and it's fucking tough paint.
Robocop1051 Posted November 20, 2018 Report Posted November 20, 2018 Buy the special color you want, the paint then black parts. Black is easier to match than foliage
98Z5V Posted November 20, 2018 Report Posted November 20, 2018 MagPul even making Foliage Green anymore? I thought they canned it...
Whiskeyfish Posted November 20, 2018 Author Report Posted November 20, 2018 Foliage Green is out there, but I'm not paying a premium ($250 +/-) for it. I decided to go OD Green. I can Rit Dye the black areas. Perfect timing. Primary Arms has the UBR G2 on BF sale, $155.72/shipped. I appreciate you guys stepping in here, with the solutions. I guess I axed that plan. LOL
Whiskeyfish Posted November 21, 2018 Author Report Posted November 21, 2018 (edited) The image above, really bad. In fact, not even close. Here's a better one. Of course it depends on your individual monitor settings. I reported my post above. Hoping the mods will delete it Edited November 21, 2018 by Whiskeyfish
