Nice, what dye are you using to get the olive?

 

I had a crack on a couple of bits over lockdown but they didnt turn out so well and i had to overspray them

good to know, although my parts ended up too dark so i doubt i'll be able to bring them back, but will bear in mind for future.

You can run very hot water over them for a decent while, it can leech the dye out, just don’t warp anything lol

i did try that just to ensure i didnt end up with green fingers next game day so they're pretty well stuck as is.

 

ahh well, nothing major, worst case it's all bits i can replace.

That green looks great! 

 

I think the FNX's magazine bases would look good in the green also.


They are a different, rubberised plastic so will end up being a different colour green

Cool! How do you apply it? I've only heard of people using spray paint so I'm not familiar with using dye.


It’s all here

I know it's an oldish thread, but that green FNX is lush

Now that you have acquired a TM HK45 what do you think of it?

 

How does it compare to the FNX45?


Sold it a long time ago, not a patch on the FNX.

still good, but not the latest technology
