Most people use grey primer plus silver leaf rub n buff wax for the helmet, armor and gauntlets. No silver spray paint. Some people have used grey primer plus silver spray paint plus rub n buff. Obi-Sean Kenobi used this method with great results, however I used it on my first paint job with poor results. A few people have used just silver spray paint with no rub n buff. The majority of the best results that I have seen came with the grey primer plus rub n buff and nothing else method. I used that method on my second paint job with great success. As for the vest, most people use charcoal grey vinyl/pleather. Some use black, though that is inaccurate. I believe Turo took a black leather police jacket and had it made into a vest then weathered it so much that it became dark grey. He got great results with that method obviously. On my next vest I may buy some dark grey leather and have it made into a vest.
