Painting

Hi, I'm a new mag owner, and I was wondering if there was a cheap, effective way for me to paint my minimag body, that I could do myself. If anyone knows if this is possible, or any ideas or tips, that would really help. Thanks.

Ok, thank you both, but I think I'm just going to get a ULE body so I can use my barrel kit from an old gun. But with my old body I am going to trying painting it by taping it holes off, spraying it with a primer layer, then spraying on the color, and then put a clear protective layer to finish it off. I'll get some pics up to show how it went if anyone wants

automags.org very helpful site, and also check there for a ULE body, this is paintball, no need to buy new.

also, don't paint the body, trust me on this. to much hassel, and not worth the "product" in the end.

Ok, thank you, but I think Im going to try it anyway, just to see how it goes, otherwise it will end up just sitting in my closet forever.
