I knew what he meant so I didn't even realize he'd said it wrong. What I meant was you have to remove the frame from the grip before you dye it.haugrdr said:Guys, that's not called the frame, it's the grip.
The frame is the aluminum part with the serial number on it.
And yes, it does make a difference, to KelTec and the BATF.
Thanks for the tip rebootit, I'm going to have to see what I can come up with for a pink grip for the wife, she will be, well, tickled pink! ;Drebootit said:Duracoat seems to be a very tough coating on these grips. Wide range of colors or find something you like in an automotive paint supply and use that. Any 2 part type paint should hold up just fine. Sherwin Williams makes an automotive paint that we use on signs painting aluminium all the time. It is rock hard and extremely scratch resistant after a few days and if it will stick to aluminium it will stick to just about anything. Main thing is to make sure it is oil free. New grips from KT are $29.00 and at least with new you don't have to worry about oil. You also don't have to be without your baby while waiting for the paint to dry ;D

I just looked and he dosen't have any grips for sale but he will spray yours for $25 + shipping. Send him an e-mail or PM he's very helpful.

Thanks CJ! When the time comes to get a grip Duracoated I'll defintely go with Golden Loki (nice site, BTW) By the time I invest in the duracoat and spend the time mucking up a DYI project, I'm better off giving it to an expert, especially at that price.CJP32 said:Golden Loki(.com) sells the grips already Duracoated the last time I checked.
