 |
|
Hi every-one,
I was moving my blaster collection and I hit one of them, and now some paint has gone  It is very limited but it makes me crazy ...
It is the HCG exclusive edition.
Does anyone know how I can hide this as much as possible ?
Thank you for your advises !
Adil

The image shows very light damage, barely more than a scratch.
You have a couple of choices.
1. Disassemble blaster to remove the receiver, strip it, repaint.
2. Find a model paint colour which is a close match and apply with a pin, just on the scratched part.
3. Accept the slight damage as part of the blaster's 'story' and put it down to natural weathering.

Personally, I would sell it to a fellow member of the forum 😅😅
Joke aside, I wouldn't touch it either. Made a scratch on my Coyle and was struggling as well on how to remedy it. I finally didn't change anything, and I love it as it is. |

If it continues to worry you I would use a very soft graphite pencil - 9B or softer - and gently work the tip into the chips.
Work slowly and softly
Best of luck

| You could also try some diluted alumablack on a Q-tip ad dab it on. |

Thank you for your answers.
I am not skilled enough to remove and paint the receiver. Not sure if I am yet ready to live with it, but it is also the advise who does not understand at all my "problem".
I will think about the graphite pencil, and also the alumi black option, which looks like a really good option. |
