What do you guys think about my camo job?
I camoed ray12's IR2 for him using liquid nails. The pattern is done without a mold, just freehand.

Wow. Looks nice. Can you explain to the rest of us how to use liquid nails to get that kind of product.

The first thing you need is Liquid Nails. Make sure that it's the heavyduty waterproof type. Then Sand the outside of the camera with 80-120 grit sandpaper.Once you sand it clean off the camera with a damp rag. Make sure to tape off the camera lens, and sensors before applying liquid nails. Then after sanding it and taping take the Liquid nails and apply a good amount to the camera. Spread it so that it has an even coat over the camera. After that take a screwdriver or something close to it and make your desired pattern. Mainly doing this to give it some depth. Once that is done let it dry. Once dry you can paint it. Make sure to use primer as the base coat, it doesn't matter if it spray paint primer(That's what I use) Next make sure you have green, brown and whatever other colors that blend in well in your area. I use actuall paint used for the outside of houses. Then take a sponge then apply the colors that fits your area best. Let dry, and there ya go. The camera will smell like paint and Liquid Nails for a while, but it hasn't effected how many deer pics i've gotten in the past.

One thing to note is that if you do this you will not be able to send in the camera for repair or replacement as it voids the warranty
