Damascus M24 Paint Job (MW 2019 Camo)

Gray and white contour swirls over black, like folded steel on an M24 sniper rifle (Remington 700). The look comes from MW 2019. The pattern is painted on the gun below with real spray can colors; reroll it, change brands, or paint over it by hand.

How to spray damascus on an M24

  1. 1. Strip it down

    Pull the bolt, take the barreled action out of the stock, and take the scope off or bag it. The stock and the barreled action paint best apart.

  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 bolt raceway, the magazine well, the trigger and the scope lenses and turrets. Leave the inletting where the action sits bare.

  4. 4. Base coat in black

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

  5. 5. Smoke gray through a topo map stencil

    Lay a topo map stencil sheet on the gun and spray smoke gray through it.

  6. 6. White through a topo map stencil

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

  7. 7. 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.
