im trying to customize my cressi sub 55mm wantin a trigger job an some camo for the barrel. i no they make green an blue but i was wounding if they made different kinds also.
 
some people use camo tape or cut a pattern using maskin tape then use 3-5 different spray paint colors then clear coat it.
 
Thanks for the help i will be attempting to paint it today hope all goes well with this project. Don Paul were did u get the reel set up for ur pneumatic?

my cressi after the paint was applied
 
yes its different Lol. i live in Arkansas so the water is either brown green or blue. there alot of trees an rocks to hid under to wait for a fish to come by so thats why i desided to try this color an theme out!!!
 
Try the search button to find lots of detailed info but, basically - you can make or buy a kit that very simply stops water entering the barrel so when the gun is fired the piston will not be tying to force water out as well as the spear.
The transformation is very noticeable with lots more power less recoil & much less noise.
I use this sytem .. http://forums.deeperblue.com/pneuma...mba-all-one-barrel-sealing-31.html#post854352
 
Well thanks for the advice on that i will see what i can figure out an learn on it. do you got any other mods u know about?
 
Nice paint job, its different but it looks cool, and be careful, if u drop the gun it will be kinda hard to see it if the water isnt clear enough

Today i got to try my new paint job in the water. weather condition it is 91 but humity is got the realfeel to 104 cloudy with no sun an parts of rain. underwater conditions- the water was brown from surface to 6ft of water after that is was green an partly clear. my gun coloring was good is was a shade to dark so it stuck out when i set it on the bottom of the lake about 3ft even with the water being brown.
