## Description

Brownells Aluma-Hyde 2 Epoxy Based Firearms Finish Aerosol Can Matte Black - desertcart.com

Review: Take it seriously, and it'll be worth it - Just letting others know, you'll probably read a lot of reviews about how the texture is bad or the paint is sprayed inconsistently. Just know that most of the issues mentioned in those bad reviews are entirely user-error. Watch the Brownell's youtube guides, prep properly, shake the can WAY more than you think. You can't just go town in 5 minutes like with regular rattlecans, do it right. It works great, and is a lot tougher than standard spray paint. For the color, do some freaking research, don't just look at the name or cap. Also I would recommend dissasembling whatever you are going to paint, don't just hit the whole piece. It won't turn out as well as if you took the few extra minutes to prep properly.
Review: The best epoxy based spray coding that you can buy - This is great stuff that I have been using for over 25 years. It's really advanced now with different colors and textures from semi gloss to matte finishes and different colors. Easy to use and follow the directions. .

### ⭐ DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY
*by M***2 on January 4, 2022*

I paint stuff all the time. Guns, cars, patio furniture. I have Big expensive air setups, little cheap air brush kits, have used duracoat, cerakote, krylon, Rust-Oleum in cans. But I was looking to get a can of something "better" for a cheap gun frame. Idk about the durability or quality of this paint because the can and nozzle don't work. Followed all directions on can exactly. Here's what happens. Can starts off spraying with some sputtering for a few seconds then it sprays a nice beautiful mist, then the mist randomly starts getting thicker and sputters out again ruining my frame. Well it ruined what I was trying to do, the frame is soaking in a stripper right now. The can was shaken for no less than 5 min. Can was warm when applying as per directions. It's just worthless. If I wanted a short cut a can of krylon would have done me better. Update: I have a lot of junk laying around and decided to try this on some stuff that I don't care about. What I noticed throughout the process is that using 220 micro grit paper to prep the surface is essential for the strongest bond. Normally with duracoat or kylon I use a 400 and it's perfect for a strong bond. With this stuff it is not. That being said, krylon is still stronger in my opinion. I oven cured the brownells for 2 hours at about 180-200 degrees on each surface prepped with different grits. Let all sit for 2 days then scratch tested them. On all of them the scratches were tearing of flakes of paint. I do not have this issue with kryon. The other big issue was the lack of consistency with the spray. As it went on really uneven and had these splatters and splotches. I still have that issue but in the process of oven curing, it smoothed out a little bit. Still not as good as cheaper options. So i still conclude that your should just use krylon. Do all your normal prep; sand, degrease by cleaning then low temp in oven to draw out more oil then hit with brake cleaner, paint with matte krylon (dries really fast between coats), oven cure for a few hours or air cure for a few days, finish with fast drying krylon matte clear coat. I promise you will have a better result than this over priced stuff.
