So, im quite gun-shy now, of clear coats…
I also am starting to think, the paint pen, may be much sturdier adhesion wise , than the original paint…
So , to test it, i have applied some paint pen, to a different blaster…
I’ll let this dry, for 24 hrs, then see how well it holds up to “robust handling”.
So far, a little paint dot has proven resistant to fingernail scratching to remove.
If it sticks on really well, maybe i’ll just leave it without the clear coating…reapplying with the pen is fairly straight forward, and if you have to do it once or twice a year, no biggy…
I’ll then apply some clear coat, to see what result i get / if it attacks pen paint / if it dulls the paint underneath.
With the coated one, i’ll try removing with acetone.
Ive been told this will remove paint, without attacking the plastic.
Then, apply paint pen from scratch , one uniform colour, and see how it goes…
These grips are hard to get, so i dont wanna screw them up…
I’d like to put a clear coat on the untouched, virgin silver M92, but im not going anywhere near it, until i figure out what the clear coats are going to do…
