Title: Benj Trail XL camo
Post by: shadow on February 14, 2012, 02:22:53 PM
It's been a long project since I had to tune it then camo everything but the customer is happy and I'm happy. It's a Turbo Tuned Benji Trail XL 1100 with another version of a bone collector camo. The scope was camo'ed as well but forgot to get it in the pics, paint fumes lol. Notice Predator pellets for eyeballs hehehe. Tap on pic for closer look. Ed

Question?  How does the paint job hold up to continual use and oils from one's hands and solvents for cleaning?

The finish holds up fine and have several shooters that have camo several years old. The key to a lasting camo is to seal it and I use Matte clear 3 to 4 coat's. As with any shooter I wipe them down after hunting etc. and my hunters have had hand oils, critter blood and other things on them. Some of my  camo hunters that have been field tested. Ed

Thanks again brothers and Crowpopper all my cam work is airbrushed. Unlike the production camo stocks and the dip system camo each customer get's a one of a kind camo. No one else will have the same camo job. When someone says I want a camo just like that one the customer can say " you won't find another like mine". ;) Ed

You da man ED great job!
Predator eyeballs are killer.
Maybe you could shrink it down and use it as a signature/ brand on all your paint jobs
just a thought ;D
