So i know everybody has their own opinion regarding what paint is best. But, im curious what people use and why. I have been using Draxxus DTX Blaze for a while and have been real happy with it. Seems to work good in most situations.

The reason i started to wonder is i got a freak kit for my phenom and the blaze was breaking like crazy in it no matter what bore size i was using. So wanted to see what [others were using. I though it was the paint. But today i tried the barrel with different paints and on an A5 i have. Same results, lots of breaks. Oh well,

Yeah hmm wierd... I would guess maybe something with that barrel cause breaking does not seem to be a problem if the paint has been taken care of when stored.

Have you changed back to the stock barrel and not had breaking issues?
Some people have had problems with breaking paint that turned out to be the Cyclone.

Yeah i put some other barrels on and it was fine, also ran the same paint through my A5's i have and no issues. so yeah, pretty sure its something with that freak kit. i like one piece barrels anyway. Time to ssave and shop for a new toy! haha

That is weird. I have not had any issues with my Freak kit. If you decide to sell the Freak, let me know. Or I may have a barrel as a partial trade.

I am going to play with it some more and try different tippmans i have, even the biggest bore sizes were breaking the paint, the breaks were in the insert, just about an inch into it was where the paint started, so i know it was not in the cyclone, breech, or barrel adapter. Oh well. live, learn, and PLAY

you know i was just thinking maybe the barrel doesn't line up for some reason when screwed into place. I forget who but I know someone recently who had a problem where one barrel didn't line up but others never had a problem. you should check that.
