    paracoat touchup?

    I just purchased a new para expert gi. I love it,this gun must have been handled quite a bit and there is a few areas that the black para coat is worn. is there a touch up tick to blacken out these areas.I did buy this gun to carry and use but wnt to keep the finish looking nice.

    Para's finish is known to not be very durable. If you are going to carry the gun anyway, I wouldn't worry about it.

    I have guns I carry, and then ones I never holster - I baby the finish on the ones I do not carry. On the others, I do not care.

    However, I would use someone like CCR Refinishing if you want a better finish. But, as you stated this is a carry gun, I think its a waste of money. You will be surprised how fast the gun will wear thru holstering and carrying.

    I have a Para LTC and the finish went south really quick. I really love the pistol so I redid the finish in Duracoat. The stuff is standing up really well so far. You can apply the Duracoat with an air brush right over the old finish after a light sanding and degreasing. Here's a like to my thred on the repaint.
    Finally! (Lots upixs)
