Very nice, you did a great job!

Have you thought about filling in the imprint?

Nope, no imprint filling. It'll be difficult to clean paint over paint in case I make a mistake. I'll probably end up ruin the orange finish  :dwts: :poh:

Thanks Poncho :salute: I'm sure this paint will hold better than the Leatherman paint job. Going back to work with me on Monday, I will show it again by the end of the year. Stay tune!

That looks awesome!

I have wondered what kind of paint to use on tools so I am looking forward to seeing what your results are, long term.  For now though it looks like an amazing job!

If you wanted to do that a latex or acrylic paint would work well and wipe of easily since the orange is an oil based paint.
