sinnsyk Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 I've been having great luck with BearCoat and just started using them to coat my grips. You can check out their website at www.bearcoat.com. Lucky for me, they are only 10mins from my house in Longmont and they do a lot of work on all kinds of guns. I just did all their colors for the Tanfoglio Stock II small frame Production blasters. The colors we can do now are: Black Blue (dark blue, close to navy blue) Red Pink (ladies...) Tan Brushed Stainless Titanium Green My favorites are Titanium and Brushed Stainless. They are very modern tech looking colors that will look good on any of our guns. I'll probably move away from anodizing, just because they require me to do a batch of grips at a time. I'll still use them for the pads, but not for grips. I did really like their "lime green", "pepsi blue" and "maroon red". Very shiny, strong colors. Problem is get the same consistent color each time. Currently their tank doesn't support the lime green. After redoing their tank color for lime green it's totally different. With BearCoat it's the same color every time which means it will be possible to match different alloys; factory parts with my parts to get exactly the same match if anyone wants to say match the scope mount with the pads, grips etc. I've attached pictures of the blue and green they do on my H161 grips which is for the production Stock II pistol. I'll get Emma to take pictures of the other colors later and post them as well. These colors aren't reflected on my shop yet. Something I've got to do soon.

heckle Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Those are some nice colors, except the pink... Oh wait you don't still have the pink grips on your gun do you henning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sinnsyk Posted December 20, 2008 Author Share Posted December 20, 2008 hehe... I ended up selling my light red - pink grips to someone who really wanted them. Of the new colors I really like the stainless steel, it's kind of like a pewter and looks real sharp. The "titanium" could also be called charcoil and according to BearCoat has become a very popular color lately. The new pink is a true pink.. The cool thing now is that trigger, grip, magwell, mount, safeties, pads etc can all be matched in the same color since it doesn't matter what material/alloy it is! Once I make some more progress on trigger and magwell I'll definitely be offering some color-matched packages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
