Paint will keep it from weathering and rotting as fast for sure.

I always recommend painting or sealing of some kind. Nice looking blinds ![up up](/forum/images/graemlins/default/cup.gif)

I'd paint it with a green base coat. Then cut a couple of small branches with leaves. Then hold the branches on the blind and spray paint them with brown, black etc spray paint. Makes a nice natural camo.

If you want some friendly advice, get a haircut and take a bath. You wouldn't get hassled so much.

Here are a couple of my West Texas blinds. I mostly bow hunt, so.... ![](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/usergals/2014/10/full-22681-13632-img_5155.jpg) ![](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/usergals/2014/10/full-22681-13633-img_5156.jpg) ![](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/usergals/2014/10/full-22681-13634-img_4862.jpg) I do have some box blinds, but don't have any pics of them.

Rust and bug proof, a small heater will make it very warm. Plenty of room for the whole famdamily or a cot if staying overnight is your deal. I wish I had a couple more to make little sleeping quarters for the snorers at camp.

It's 7x4 and plenty tall and comfortable. It has 12 v lights and plug to charge my phone or run a computer to check game pics. I have a couple of these built and they are great to hunt out of. I'm thinking about selling this one unless I paint it and use it.
