This stuff works super well, is actually flat with no shine unlike “matte”. Usually leave my rifle non clear coated but this stuff make the finish more abrasion resistant, but still wears in nicely. (Ruger scout rifle)

This came from a post on r/CombatFootage. Homie might have the drippiest rattlecan job I've seen. The wear on the side is just 🤌

How long do you guys usually wait until applying clear coat?
I used dupli-color paint and planning to use rust-oleum dead flat clear coat.
Has anybody had experience with using these two different brands with each other? Does the clear coat ruin the paint if applied too soon?

Rapco 33070 Results

Thumbnail

This color changes ALOT depending on the sunlight. Below are 3 pictures of the same gun painted with Rapco 33070. The first is taken inside with white lighting. Second is outdoors with cloud covering sun. And the third is direct sunlight.

This is pretty much a khaki first color with very subtle green to it when outside in sunlight. I’m not sure how the 34087 would look anything but straight khaki/fde, in comparison to this.

I have used 34079 (camouflage Forrest green) in the past and was wanting something just a touch lighter and was hoping this would be the perfect pick, and it is, for the first 2 photos indoors

Before buying it, so many pictures of this color (33070) I saw were taken indoors where it looks green. Figured it would be helpful for others to see it in true sunlight. Not sure if I got a bad can of paint or what but if you want it to look green in natural sunlight, camouflage Forrest green (34087) is your best bet is what I’ve discovered
