OK, maybe dumb question here, WHY would you want to paint a chainsaw?

[Steve Bullman]

I leave my gear at a company I sub to, I usually meet them on site and the lads pack my gear. The company uses a lot of the same model saw as me so just want to make mine unmistakable

You could always engrave them with " Stevie B " ...........

Likely they can't read or they would of got a better job than been steves bitch

If it's just to mark it up just use a can of car spray paint

Won't be classy or smart but will keep enough of the colour to always be distinguishable 😇

Just use some coloured tape.

Easy enough to do steve and cheap too
