Default Splatter Powdercoat... Coming soon !

Have you guys ever did a dripped powder coat effect? It makes it look like there was paint splattered on it after painted a solid color but its actually powder coat, do you guys know what I'm talking about?

I know, but I've seen it somewhere and I know it wasn't paint, it was powdercoat, I've seen it on custom paintball guns and the such.

EDIT:




That's all Anodizing.

nice stuff. u can see that pink that its anodized.
is it not possible to have that orange gun anodized then have red paint splattered ?
i would assume the same could be approached with powder. coat the part first then splatter paint over it.

I'm trying to figure out how they do it, but I know it ain't paint, its anodizing.

EDIT: Figured out how they do it. They anodize the lighter color first, then mask it off with rubber cement or similar, then anodize the dark color. At least that's one way they do it.
