Best matching Plum paint?
27 October, 2015, 12:17
Hi guys,
Geting another AK with plum furniture later, I'd like to get the bumgarian magazines and make them plum to match the gun. As they're not available in see through (for midcaps anyway) I was going to paint over them.
Has anyone found a good spray paint, that's a close enough match to the plum colour used on the furniture? Quite often they don't dry the colour on the can!

Re: Best matching Plum paint?
a few years ago I used dye to change the colour of some Black AK furniture to plum. It's an easy process which involves putting the plastic parts in hot water along with the dye and waiting about 20 minutes. I think the dye was made by rylon and they only do 1 plum colour which is a very good match for the Russian plum colour. might be worth trying this if you can't find any paint (Plus the dye doesn't flake off like paint).
Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.
