I redid my own TS (previously Black and Gold) using Cerakotes new Tequila Sunrise orange, along with Sniper Grey, Tungsten, and Dark Cobalt. Something different

I think I posted this elsewhere? Facebook? But it appears as though they are using a pearl clearcoat (Guncandy at a guess?) over a black base. Its the bond between the base and top coat that is failing. Clears over base never hold up as well as a straight H/Elite series job in my experience ... which is why I dont do them any more.

I have the high top style cut for magwell on both my TS/TSO as well.

What’s the high top cut?
ill be getting the thin roughnecks. The bogies where too aggressive a feel for me so I got the roughnecks on my S2. I have smaller hands so the palm wells are a no go for me.
ok so the first set I ordered - Shadow 2 Palmswell Bogies - came with a straight horizontal cut on the grips. Functional, but ugly. See red grips below.
Asking for the high top cut gets you the standard top profile from the thin bogies/factory grips. Looks 100x better. Should be the standard spec if you ask me. See grey grips below.

If you want Palmswells, ensure you order Shadow 2 Palmswells and for the love of god ask for the HIGH TOP CUT.

DPP Screws
in CZ
The DPP screws are pretty s#!tty quality - not a surprise you stripped one.

Haha, got to start somewhere

A fair bit of stuff. Off the top of my head:
- Sandblasting cabinet and a big enough compressor to run it.
- Acetone soak tanks
- HVLP gun - Iwata LPH-80 is the go to, but I started with a cheapy which was serviceable enough short term.
- Oven for baking. I have a big oven for rifles and chassis, and a smaller one set up for pistols and accessories.
- All the various beakers and syringes for mixing etc. Gloves, strainers.
- Good respirator - stuff is pretty nasty.
I think thats about the barebones to get you going? Obviously air dryers etc for spraying are recommended, but it all adds up quickly.

TS in splinter camo using the new Polar Blue and Crushed Orchid - along with the ol faithful Cobalt.

I've got a factory gripped TS, a TSO, and have done a few grip reductions. Id take the TSO grip out of the three options.

Had to find something to match the Urban Grey frame, so went with a Mojito/Tungsten/Dark Cobalt camo for his optics slide, and a Polar Blue/Tungsten/Dark Cobalt combo for the Prod slide.
-
Finished this one yesterday, woodland camo-ish TSO frame.
-
No way in hell will that fit the ipsc box, the CZUB magwell barely fits.
-
Another TS in 3-tone bronze. slide cuts, docked frame, TSO rear site, zigracker dovetail cut.
-
This Shadow 2 has Cobalt Kinetics Slate on the frame, and a super dark Cobalt blend on the slide, with Graphite Black accessories.
-
I coated my spare optics cut slide in Topoflage camo for something different.

Cerakote looks great until you start drawing from the holster. Nice work otherwise
Certainly holds up better than polycoat, so that’s a plus

Nice work. Dig that green one. What color is that?
Highland Green on the frame, Cobalt on the slide and accessories.

Positive - I’m over in Australia
There just isn’t a huge amount of photos of randomly colored Shadow 2s so I thought this might be some good inspiration.

Some loud, some subtle - the joys of it all. Hope you like this motley collection. If you want to see a pile more junk, check me out on Instragram @ipscerakote. Dont worry, Im not trying to drum up work (this is just a side hobby), its just too much hard work to pics here haha.
