How to spray galaxy on an AK-47

  1. 1. Strip it down

    Take off the dust cover, recoil spring, bolt carrier and gas tube. Paint the dust cover off the rifle so it still seats.

  2. 2. Degrease everything

    Wipe every outside surface with acetone or isopropyl alcohol. Paint will not hold over gun oil.

  3. 3. Mask what moves

    Plug the chamber and muzzle, tape the magazine well, trigger, safety lever and rear sight leaf. Scuff the wood lightly first or paint only the metal.

  4. 4. Base coat in navy blue

    Two light coats over the whole gun, 8 to 12 inches away, 10 minutes apart.

  5. 5. Soft purple haze

    Mist soft patches of purple from 12 to 18 inches, so the edges fade.

  6. 6. Soft mambo pink haze

    Mist soft patches of mambo pink from 12 to 18 inches, so the edges fade.

  7. 7. White through a stars stencil

    Lay a stars stencil sheet on the gun and spray white through it.

  8. 8. Let it cure

    Handle it after an hour but give it a full day before it goes in a case, and a few days before hard use.
