just information ive heard.. not really suggesting it, since i dont know enough about the stuff to tell you wether the theory is really true or not..
im sure one of the paint guys on here can confirm or disprove the theory for me..
Disclaimer: like i said.. not claiming this is true by any means, just somethign ive heard.. no 2Poor4Z bashing lol

The gunmetal boyd's are nice though.
