Hey everyone, I just got my Cansoft version G32C in the mail. At first I was skeptical of the claim the the body was as stout as was claimed and thought it would sound like a plastic gun. Well, I was wrong, It's quite amazing actually.

After running a couple mags through it I decided it was worth spending a few hours on to make it look pretty. I had already bought the Krylon Molecular Bonding OD Green a few days ago, so I went to work. Here are the steps I took to get it done.

1) First I took the slide off. I know this sounds simple but unlike most GBB's, you have to rack the slide back to get the hammer out of the way before you remove the slide. It's a Glock thing I think.

2) I removed the 2 pins holding the internals in place. This was quite easy with a small jeweler style screwdriver and a regular plastic screwdriver to use as a hammer.

3) I removed the 2 screws securing the internals, one in the center of the frame at the front, and one in the rear corner.

4) I then removed the rear internal bits. Be careful here, as on the left side of the gun (muzzle forward) there is a silver catch, and under that is a small spring.

5) Then I removed the front parts, don't worry this one is easy, no little part to fall out. Use a small screwdriver to depress the spring that holds the slide release in place. Then remove the slide release catch though one of the side holes. After that the front internals will lift out in tact.

6) I washed the body with soap and water to remove any traces of oil or dirt. Then dried it.

7) I painted the body with 5 very thin coats of my Krylon paint. Giving about 10 minutes between each coat.

8) I reassembled the lower body with the internals after about one hour of letting the paint cure. Just do the opposite of what you did to take it apart, it's very easy. (paint is dry to touch in about 15 minutes)

9) Decide weather or not you want to leave your breech/barrel black. If you want a metal breech use some 400 grit sandpaper to take the paint off of the parts that will be exposed, then shine it up with some 1000 grit. After that wash it with just pain water to get the sandpaper dust off and dry it.

10) I had some regular Krylon for metal clear coat kicking around, so I gave the barrel/Breech 2 thin coats to prevent it from tarnishing. Allow it to dry for 20 minutes before you reassemble the slide.

Here's what you get, The finished product!
