The key is be patient, and don't be lazy on prep work.

Don't be greedy on each layer, it takes a lot of thin layer to make a nice finish especially you are painting it while it's installed.

I have the MPE, so it has a separate tip which I painted it before having it installed.

Search for the thread from Blackhawks .
