Can you Painter your Pointer?

[Fishingfromakayak]

I got a garret black pointer. I was wondering if it is ok to paint it ? I would like to add some orange to it to make it easier to find. Because we all know that I would NEVER drop it lol

I just bought a role of hot pink duck tape. I only had to misplace it once while hunting a couple of cellar holes in the woods. It took me 45 minutes to find it. Now I just make a wide tape ring around the handle and it's highly visible. Live and learn.

The Hotter the Better.

Why not simply use a lanyard clipped to a belt loop? Garrett pin pointers have a lanyard loop built into them already. If you have the original model you can get a metal lanyard ring that fits over the threads of the battery compartment.

get a rattle can of plastic primer spray that on first dry with hairdryer and then apply orange this will make the paint grip to the plastic and should wear a lot better without it paint would scratch off

You can get the spray on or dip type rubberize coating in different bright colors and coat the front tip area for high visability & also will protect the tip from abrasion wear. I got mine off of Amazon.

I use a PapaDoody cover on one of my black Garrett Pro-Pointers
And I've used Day-Glo, bright Red (and Reflective)-type tape, up near the battery cap/lid.
That should be easily be seen, if (temporarily) lost...,
but the lanyard idea seems to be the best idea yet.
Tape can be removed, but paint can't - and not sure if paint harms the performance....
