I know they just get beat on an I did 4 coats of flat clear coat . Have done many painting projects like this with things that are subject to abuse an all have held up terrific so figured why the hell not !
 
Looks like a real nice paint job. Why anyone would want to camo their saw I can’t figure. They are usually bright colors like orange, white, yellow, and red so you can easily find them in the underbrush.

I just really like camo , plus I’m not worried of losing the saw . I’m a one man show For just fire wood an working with 5 acres out back . But yes I understand the bright color thing an not to worried bout losing my saw .

That looks refreshing, so you use airbrush and templates or what?

Looks great if you did the white and bar in camo you wouldn’t find the saw in the brush. Lol I still think its neat looking. This could start a trend mossy oak stickem camo for saws. For worn plastics camo it.

Haha ya no bar . But ya who knows . Trend or no trend I like it an the camo makes it cut faster lol
 
I still think it’s cool but I’m surprised that mossy oak and Stihl haven done this yet?

Funny, I moved from north jersey to southern Connecticut city in the 60’s. I moved to the more rural area about 13 years ago. I wore camo to the local store to pick up a coffee and a snack. The state workers were sitting there on a break. One said Hicks when I walked by. The joke is on him I’m just a guy frm Jersey/city. This proves we can adapt and blend in anywhere. It was cold out and I put on my insulated camo shirt.

Thanks , I like it , it’s different. Would be good idea like you said even to clean up worn out covers . Everything else sells on this planet why not this lol .
