How to spray flecktarn dots on a Glock 17
1. Strip it down
Take the slide off the frame and pull the barrel and recoil spring. Paint the slide and the frame separately.
2. Degrease everything
Wipe every outside surface with acetone or isopropyl alcohol. Paint will not hold over gun oil.
3. Mask what moves
Tape the slide rails and the inside of the slide, the barrel hood, trigger and slide stop, and the magazine well so magazines still drop free.
4. Base coat in woodland light green
Two light coats over the whole gun, 8 to 12 inches away, 10 minutes apart.
5. Lay the flecktarn dots pattern
Clustered dots in four colors, German style. Spray olive, then brown, then black, light to dark, letting each color flash off before the next.
6. 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.
