There is no specific reason to customize your paintball mask. However, I found that most paintball players don’t want to look like everybody. In other words, pro paintball players want to look unique, excellent, and superior to other paintball players. But a beginner paintball player like you doesn’t know how to customize your paintball mask or paint the paintball mask.
Stop worrying right now, as I’ve your back. Our team has been playing paintball for more than a decade. Paintball sport is our true passion. Therefore, our customization guide for paintball masks will help you. So, let’s start learning how to customize your own paintball mask.
Customization Of Paintball Mask (2 Methods)
In case, you don’t have one of the best paintball masks of 2024 and want to renew your old paintball. Remember, there are only two ways to customize the paintball masks.
- Customize paintball mask with spray paint
- Customize paintball mask with extra parts
How To Paint A Paintball Mask? (Step By Step)
Maybe you think painting a paintball mask is difficult, but that is not true. All you have to do is follow the steps to make your paintball mask extraordinary.
(1) Collect The Things You Need
- The first item you need is plastic spray paint because ordinary spray paint does not last long. If you have only regular spray paint, use primer on the paintball mask before spraying it.
- The second thing on our list is regular sticky tape. So you can cover the goggles or other areas of the paint mask you want to protect from spray paint.
- The third thing you need is a sharp knife blade. It helps in cutting the tape accurately. So, the sticky tape does not cover any extra area on the mask, and you can spray paint on every inch you want to.
- The last thing you need is stencil paper. Suppose you don’t want to make your design on the paintball mask. Then, there is no need for stencil papers. Stencil papers are just an optional thing.
(2) Find The Right Place
- Before starting to do any work, wear old spare clothes. So, you do not get stains on the new clothes.
- Then, find a place where you want to play with paint and do your work without worrying about cleansing.
- Make sure the workplace has big air spaces. So, the paint smell does not bother you.
(3) Separate Each Part Of the Mask For Cleaning
Now, it’s time to do some work. Let’s start with separating all the parts of the paintball mask, then clean every paintball mask part. It would be best to use polycarbonate spray on every paintball mask part. Dry all the paintball mask parts with a microfibre cloth before moving to the next step.
(4) Cut The sticky Tape Precisely And Apply It To Goggle Lens
Cut the tape according to any specific part of the paintball mask you want to keep safe from paint. For example, you cut the sticky tape with a sharp knife blade. Then, apply it to the goggle lens without damaging the sticky tape.
As a result, there will be no chance of painting the goggle lens. I advise you to leave the sticky tape on the paintball mask parts for at least one hour.
(5) Use Spray Paint And Stencil Paper
As I mentioned in this article, you can use two types of spray paint. Ordinary spray paint does not last long; to make it permanent, you must first apply primer on the mask. According to our experience, using plastic spray paint is the best choice for a paintball mask. Whatever spray paint you use, make sure there is 6-inch distance between the spray and the parts.
Don’t forget that the paint needs a few hours to dry. After that, remove the sticky tape and put back all the parts of the paintball mask together. Make sure you didn’t scratch the paint, and everything looks satisfactory.
You can also make exciting designs on stencil paper to make paintball masks. Just cut that out and apply stencil paper on the paintball mask with sticky tape. Use another color of spray paint on the stencil paper. When the paint dries out, remove the stencil paper carefully. Finally, your customized paintball mask will be ready.
How To Customize Paintball Mask With Extra Parts?
No rocket science exists in customizing a paintball mask with extra parts or elements. You only need some small, attractive things to put on your paintball mask. For example, stickers, gadgets, a paintball action camera, etc. Use glue to place all the elements on the paintball mask. Wait an hour, and then you can show off your new customized paintball mask.
