HEY! theres my pretty minimag body! (the black/red one lol) I personally LOVE the job, its nice and shiney! *polishes it a little while he types* I'd Highly recommend the fade jobs by RedRider. And you can tell by the flash reflection off the pics that they are glossy. Ive also included two of the pics of my black/red mag all assembled. And I dont mind about the borrowed pics, I only actually own the black/red Mini, the others belong to other people, and the pics are actually RedRiders hehe I just posted them for him :D

project mag, i was thinking about getttin a fade on my mag,blue and black ,does it have a glossy finish?what do u think would look better on my mag, blue/black or just black?

my mag has
10 inch boomstick
intelliframe(blade)
vertical adapter
pmi drop forward
power feed
normal silver valve


i think blue black would thro off the black/silver scheme im using right now.what do u think

project mag, that last pic u posted of the blue silver minimag, is that silver or what in the back?

ProjectMag
10-25-2001, 05:06 PM
Those aren't my guns but I have a minimag body that redrider powdercoated all black and it's glossy looking. Blue/black fade would look nice and I believe that last pic is a blue/sliver fade. Your choice :)

Redrider has the KAPP DZII and a foregrip (not pictured) which are being powdercoated to match...

10-25-2001, 07:35 PM
do you think a black to silver fade would look good on a automag with a ten inch boomstick? cuz it goes black(tip of boomstick) silver ( back end of boomstick) black (front part of fade) silver (back of fade) silver (valve)
is black/silver the best colors i could get for my gun?I was thinking about the blue silver that project mag posted but i think the black silver would match my barrel and valve better. what do u think the best color combo is?

ProjectMag
10-25-2001, 07:39 PM
I think a silver/black fade would look pretty good with a boomstick. Plus, if you have a silver theme on your gun already, a silver/black fade would be best. Just my opinion though :)

DYE-BaLLeR
10-25-2001, 07:51 PM
black front, silver back, right project?

We'll redrider is in the process of coating my gun as we speak. I saw a picture of it half done a few min ago. It is completely silver... it looks like something off t-1000 from the terminator movies. I almost thought about askin him to let it be how it is, but its going to look even better with its blue fade i think. I'll have pix up as soon as possible. -Matt

Hey, do have any pics of this "3d reptile" method?? Also, I was wondering if you can do "vertical" fades, where you paint the top "tube" one color and the bottom "tube" a different color??

sajohnston
12-07-2001, 09:27 AM
I am usually a plain matte black guy but I may get frisky and donate a spare body, rail and grip frame to the cause. Dye Baller you read my thoughts exactly; Pewter to black may be right up my alley.

Puddleglum
12-07-2001, 12:31 PM
Hey Red, would it be possible to see pics of mine? I had the black to silver fade. Have you done it yet?

Ant
12-07-2001, 09:09 PM
i'd like to see the black to solver fade pics too if possible. I'm getting mine done eventually, i'm gonna get silver to black on my mini, and on my vert/foregrip not sure if i'm goin silver to black to match the gun or black to silver to offset the fade of the mainbody. Which ever way i get it it'll look great with my chrome dz2 and black benchy 2x and revy. Any opinions on the foregrip fade, same as the gun or different(black to silver)???

I will post a better pic as soon as I get it back. I will have it back on Wednesday I think...I will put some close ups on here. It will look much better with the gripframe on it!:D

garasaki
12-10-2001, 11:05 AM
It'd be way cool if we could get some close ups of that 3d reptile coating...it does look very cool though. Maybe some really big, high res pics too :D

I'm just trying to get a good idea of what I want done to my gun...I've heard nothing but good things about this guy!!

edweird
12-10-2001, 12:56 PM
Hey redrider do you got anything in a nice dark gunmetal color? maybe with thoes nifty color shifting flakes... Just a thought.

Xmass present for my self ... why not its the off season...:D My wife will never know. hehehehe

I got a question. I am having REDRIDER powdercoat my mag, i cant decide what color though! i was deciding between purple or purple-black fade. anything look coool?

thanks

-adam

redrider87
12-10-2001, 11:36 PM
garasaki: My camara can not take a close up that shows the real depth of the REPTILE finnish. It does look better in real light.
edweird: I do not have a gun metal but i do have a silver to black fade that looks real nice. I can also do a pewter to black too.
Maghappy: To make thing better I have metallic purple and anodize purple. I can fade them to black. They look real cool. Its a tough call.

deded
12-10-2001, 11:45 PM
Red: do you have anything that is pretty close to the AGD warp feed "blue" color? (its more like a purple)

THX

ded

redrider87
12-11-2001, 12:49 AM
deded: the blues I have right now are,anodized blue, smurf blue, metalic blue plus the REPTILE BLUE. I have not seen the warp blue so I don't really know.

garasaki
12-11-2001, 08:14 AM

Nice looking powder coats. Can you do a gloss black?

redrider87
12-12-2001, 03:05 PM
Yes, I can do gloss black.

Ariestsheft
12-12-2001, 03:37 PM
I was wondering if you could do grip frames too redrider?

Panzerr
12-12-2001, 04:43 PM
Red-

I'm possibly looking at having my main body, rail, foregrip and grip-frame done. Is the powder coat durable enough so it won't just flake off after some time?

Panzerr
12-12-2001, 04:44 PM
How long would it take for you to do this?

thecavemankevin
12-12-2001, 06:28 PM
well, by my count a ton of people want red to due some powdercoating for them...so he will probably be busey for some time.

Hey red, about how long does it take (including cure times and such) for a gun to be finished?

Donnyluv
12-12-2001, 10:32 PM
I haven't seen any e-mags done so far. Is that an option? I really like purple or a blue to purple fade like on my Intimidator, but I haven't seen a purple that I like, yet. It has to be really bright to suit me.
Let me know.
Thanks.

redrider87
12-13-2001, 12:35 AM
Aries: I can do grip frames

Panzerr: Powder coat is pretty darn strong. It is stronger then car paints and not as strong as good anodizing. Just play with it and take care of it when your done it will last a long time. Plus from $15-about $40 you can change the paint job a few times before one anodizing job $150-$250
My turn around time depends on how much guns I have before yours gets to me. Also on the holidays and work too. It is usually about 2 weeks.

Caveman: It takes me about 2-6 hours per gun depending on the powder coat job!!

Donnyluv: I can do e-mags. No one has sent me one yet.

FooTemps
12-13-2001, 12:38 AM
Red,

I'm just wonderin if you've had any requests for vertical fades yet. Is a satin finish available for p/c?

Donnyluv
12-13-2001, 12:40 AM
Woohoo!!
Well I still want to see a bright purple before I decide which color scheme I want for sure. But anyway send me some details on price and where to send it and I'll get it out ASAP.

redrider87
12-13-2001, 01:23 AM
FooTemps; I am working on a dust finnish. Kind off like the angels. I can do the vertical fade but no one wants one yet. I can also do angle fades too.

Donnyluv. I e-mailed you.

That's cool. I might ask for an uneven fade job with that dust finish when I buy my mag...

garasaki
12-13-2001, 09:11 AM
What's the dust finish like? Do you have any pictures?? I'll probably get mine going out to you sometime in early january RED, although it's a spyder (dont beat me up automag guys!). I'll be getting a vertical fade...just trying to decide on what finish I wanna get...

Doobie
12-14-2001, 07:48 AM
Red,
Here is another ? for you. How does the coating effect the thickness of the body. I ask because I have a Hyperframe and the tolerance between the grip,rail,and body are just right now. I would not want vanity to throw off performance.

Puddleglum
12-14-2001, 12:55 PM
Ok peeps, I don't have a digital camera so I'm doing some scanning. Doh. I will try to get some better pics later with a friends digi. but 'til them bare with me. (did you catch it??) hehe

redrider87
12-15-2001, 03:02 AM
Wheelman
The two purples I have are:::Anodize purple and metallic purple. The anodize is a brighter real shiny color. The metallic is a dark purple with metal flakes in it. I can fade them to black too.

Doobie. I do not powder coat in between the rail and the gun and in between the trigger frame and the rail. Thats on the body and the rail and the rail and the trigger frame.

I have seen the metallic purple, too dark. Have you got any pics of the anodize purple, That sounds cool.

Donnyluv
12-15-2001, 10:38 PM
Yeah, I'd really like to see the anodize purple, too. The brighter the better.

12-16-2001, 10:21 PM

redrider87
12-18-2001, 06:05 AM
Mag-pbg: I have metallic green and Lime green.

Wheelman and Donnyluv: I have a pic of the metallic purple but my pic of the anodize purple came out blue. I do not have one, sorry.

Paintballrulzs: If you can take it apart I can spray it.

AngelBoy: I can do the pewter but at this time I would not recomend it for the whole gun. I am still testing it for strength.

Wild Osiris: Right now I am pretty caught up but I believe there are more markers on the way. It all depends on when you ship and how many I have here. My turn around will be close to 2 weeks from now on. (AFTER THE HOLIDAYS)

Donnyluv
12-28-2001, 09:47 PM
Red: Thanks for getting back to me on the purple. I'll guess I'll just have to choose another color.

spawnboy
12-29-2001, 01:17 AM
Me and Muskie are in the same boat...I've been talking to Red for a little while now and I am curious how those who have had powdercoating done like the durability. I'm guessing anodizing is stronger but from the sounds of it powdercoating is pretty damn tought too. I've really enjoyed looking at all the pics of everyones guns, however picking the colors and style has got to be the most gawd afull predicament. I'm looking to get some work done by him soon. So with the Reptile look, is that come in green and if so what kind of greens? And can you do barrels? I'm guessing only steel or aluminum barrels, nothing with ceramics.

Sorry guys. I have been really busy. It turns out I will most likely not be returning to work for a very long time. So I have been out looking for a real job. On top of that my Grandmother fell down and broke her shoulder and shattered her arm. She is staying with us in my room. That is were my computer is. Thats why I have not been checking my e-mails or anything. She gets sick when I powdercoat in the basement. Thats why I am so backed up. I will try and do my best to do what I can. Sorry guys.
