Shielding & paint

Note: Not all paint jobs are available on all parts.

Each part of the power armor can be painted or shielded separately. Paint jobs, however, only have an effect when the entire armor is painted in the same scheme, while shield coatings are effective per separate armor part and don't require a full set. As a general rule: paint, besides modifying the statistics of power armor, also adds a cosmetic effect to the power armor. While shield coatings, on the other hand, leave the appearance of an armor unchanged (winterized coating is a paint job in all respects despite the name and requires all pieces to possess the paint/coating to work).

Certain paint schemes and shields are limited to specific power armor models, while others are available for all power armors. Raider power armor cannot be painted or shielded at all. Painting does not require any materials with the exception of Vault-Tec paint and military paint.

Armored clothing

Many articles of clothing can have Damage and Energy Resistance added at an armor workbench. See ballistic weave for details.

Notes

• Each time a new mod is built, the Sole Survivor receives a small number of XP.
• Armor mods in the "Mods" tab in the Pip-Boy represent those mods that have been removed from armor one has modded. They are available for use on other armor pieces of the same type without crafting them again. These unused mods can be stored in a workbench, and will be available at the armor workbench.
• The player character needs to acquire and increase the Armorer perk to mod more advanced armor pieces (i.e. "Sturdy" or "Heavy"). However, they can apply mods made for lesser armor pieces to more advanced pieces of the same material type. For example, one can make a studded leather mod for a standard leather chest piece and then move it to a sturdy or heavy leather chest piece. This allows the player character to bypass the inability to make mods for those advanced pieces directly.
• The shadowed mod for leather armor, metal armor and combat armor will significantly darken the color of such items. Similarly, the polymer and fiberglass armor mods will brighten the color of such items.
• The Dense mod adds the hidden perk "mod_armor_Explosions2Perk" with the effect "Mod Incoming Explosion Damage, Multiply Value, 0.50" (-50% damage from explosions). The Padded mod adds the hidden perk "mod_armor_Explosions1Perk" with the effect of "Mod Incoming Explosion Damage, Multiply Value, 0.75" (-25% damage from explosions). Having more than one modded armor piece with the same hidden perk will not provide additional benefit. However, having one piece with Padded and another with Dense gives a total of -62.5% damage from explosions ((0.5*0.75)-1).
• The dense mod for metal arm armor and metal leg armor does not have a loose mod that can be viewed in the "Mods" tab of the Pip-Boy. It is missing the correct loose mod object in the games background files, so each time it is removed, the game just removes the effects from the item. That being said, it still does provide protection from explosions when the mod is attached.
