Not trying to be rude or anything like that, but when I first saw your post I was really interested in getting some of the mulitcam hydro dip on some of my "real" guns, but it seems like there is almost a "shine" to the multicam dip that you have taken pictures of, is that how it really is or just your camera?

it is all in the clear coat you chose to use. i had matte finish on hand when i did that job. i am in search of a flat clear that will work with the hydro dip and not orange peel or fish eye. so i can go a flat finish and if need be i can over coat it than ruff it up to dull the matte or flat finish more.

so tell me what you all think. i know it still has a few flaws but it is getting much better. powder coating is also still up and the large oven finaly has a heater. so it will be up soon. i can still do smaller parts. hit me up.

Considering you are offering a service to change something's visual appearance, I would highly recommend getting a better camera.  The grainy pictures make it really hard to judge the quality of the work which is going to affect people's interest in the service.

Just received my pistol today and wow it looks good! I'll upload some images of it soon.

Is your time worth basically zero?

To properly powdercoat those parts you'd have to disassemble the gun, paint strip the parts, clean them, powdercoat them, bake them, clean the powder gun before and after use to purge the colors, reassemble the gun.

You're going to price yourself out of your own market soon when you realize that you can't pay the bills at that kind of price, for the amount of time it takes to do it PROPERLY.

I see this venture not lasting long, if you're willing to work for sub minimum wage. That, or you have a lower standard of living than I do.

 i do understand that and i just got a contor camera and im hoping that will be better than my phone. my phone has a 720 i think but lighting really hurts the pics.

right now im starting at just material cost to get my product out there. i have noticed that most of the people on here or anywhere in that fact are very picky with things like this. so if i can make my price near rock bottom as an incentive to get people in than so be it. now when things pick up prices may raise but only a small amount. also as of fare warning im slowly improving quality so i do not want to charge a large amount of money for a product that may not be 100% perfect. but to counter that i will not send something out half assed, i will do my best with what i have.
