Its doing OK. Prep work is key. There are a few chips where I didn't prep good. But over all its far better than duracote but not as tough as cerakote. It's easy to use and a hell of a lot cheaperhow is ur finish holdin up? i bought 2 cans and wanna do my barrels and was wondering how urs was lasting?
It all depends on how much you use. I only used three or four coats. I'd say it's between cerakote and duracote thickness wise.How thick is it when it is applied? Tolerances?
Although it might be fun...heck just do your own cerakote.. not rocket science really
you need a finish spray gun and an air compressor 30-40 PSI
then you need a way to heat the items.. I built my own heat box using aluminum sheeted foam panels( HD or Lowes) for insulation and a $9 HF heat gun a grill thermometer works for monitoring heat.
then something to soak the part in with acetone.. 4' piece of gutter with end caps works fine(HD)
then you'll need a blasting cabinet with 120 or 100 grit AO. this is the most expensive part of the whole deal. $100 for the cabinet( HF or TS) and 40-50 for the AO
if the cost seems like a lot get with some friends and split it..
once you have everything you can do as many firearms as you like
you get what you pay for... believe me
just saying
