Brownell's Alumahyde II is a DIY Friendly, durable epoxy paint firearms finish that can be color matched to popular, more durable firearm finishes like cerakote and durakote. Because the Brownells paint is designed to color match these more popular finishes, you can easily DIY paint your accessories or firearms to match these popular colors, like Magpul Flat Dark Earth (FDE) or Aero Precision's Coyote Brown.

For these reasons Brownell's Alumahyde is the perfect finish for painting your rifle or painting your handgun or pistol frame.

In this video, we'll explain what Alumahyde is and it's pros and cons. We'll explain how it compares against more durable methods like cerakote, and why it is a better solution than off the shelf camoflauge spray paints like rustoleum and krylon.

We'll also include a step by step guide on how to apply Alumahyde to your firearm for best results, including tips, tricks, and best practices. We'll also show off two projects, an AR-15 handguard that has been coated with Alumahyde, as well as a PSA Dagger Glock clone frame, both painted with Brownell's Earth Brown finish, which correlates closely to Magpul FDE.
