where do people get theres?????????????

[Toad]

Brought some from Halfords about 2 weeks ago.
(I can mention them can't I? They are in no way in comp with zero one)
The tan and brown arn't quite right but close enough. Yet to try the green. So far done my serpa and lid. Used the serpa on sunday gone. No wear signs as yet...
Though at £7.99 a can it should last!! Lol

Re: dark earth spray paint

That's all fake wear, I'm glad you think it looks real lol
Yeah, it had about 3/4 coats I think, the magwell grip is wearing alittle but I perfer that wear look.
You could eadily get a matt vanish to go over the top if you wanted, especially if it's parts that will be worn quicker
