Guys,
I just purchased a used rifle and it is need of a paint job, it appears that it is on it's third coat of paint including the factory color. The topcoat was Krylon or something similar because it came off with stripper, the tan is a better paint and it is still holding on pretty well.
My problem is that there are some small chips and areas that got stripped below the factory coat of paint. I want to use a thin type of filler but am not sure what to use, or more to the point, what not to use.
I will check at the local paint stores tomorrow, but you know how it is, it can be hard to find someone with first hand experience working the counter.
Give me your thoughts.
Edit to add, at this point I am thinking about Duracoating it.
