So, I’m looking to recreate the early red FMJ finish on o matter frames!

I have basically the same case for a different phone. I see yours is missing the kickstand.

The kickstand was removed for the Pop Socket bro.The color is awesome though

The Commanders Helmets look like a nice FMJ Red. Who is this team? What is the big W all about? Did we insult Indians again?

Texans helmets looking like a shinier FMJ red tonight…

So the test run is almost a complete success, now I gotta see how well it holds up to daily use. I haven’t painted the icons black yet and I was too impatient to wait for the black lenses to come in. So these lenses came in a factory set of valves and are thicker and less flexible than the galaxy lenses I ordered for this project. Sadly I got 2 small chips popping in the left lense it can be seen in the last 2 pics.

Unfortunately that paint isn't durable at all.
And it chips very easily.

You “must” have patience!

Oh yeah and “Pot, Pot…this is kettle. You’re black. Over.”

But the color don’t look too shabby at all.

Yes these may end up display pieces. Next I’ll attempt to get lenses and earsocks into the “electric blue” Rotor and see if it holds up any better.

I'm sure there's a bit more blue in the Scar +Red.

Not sure if I’ll use these paints on any more frames, but they’re definitely perfect for custom colored icons!

That's what I use them for!!
