Whe I got my S&W K-Frame replica from propguns.com It needed some work. Heres what I did:

Supplies:
Black, Brown, and Gold Akrylic paint
80 grit sandpaper, FINE grit sandpaper
Krylon Clear Coat

First a sand out all the inperfections in the gun. Then gave it a final sanding using the FINE grit paper. Next, I gave the entire gun 2 coats of black paint. Next, the gun got 2 coats of clear coat and sat over night. Next day, I painted and detailed the grips and gave the entire gun 2 more coats of clear coat and let that dry over night before putting it into the holster. Looks great, way better then I did before!

Cheers Josh
