Can you cerakote wood? I have an Remington SP-10 shotgun and the stock and forearm are both wood. I have been searching everywhere for a replacement composite stock and forearm with absolutely no luck. Can the factory walnut pieces be coated? Want I want to try to do is have the entire thing coated then dipped in Duck Blind camo then coated matte clear if possible.

I would use the C series, air dry Cerakote on the wood. I used the oven cure on a wood stock before and it did shrink the wood a little. Check with whomever is going to dip the gun and make sure your good to go dipping over Cerakote
Have you thought about selling the gun and buying the factory camo version?? You can paint what you've got but I would do the math first.
Unfortunately Remington no longer makes the SP-10. I can find replacement wooden stocks and forearms but not the composite ones.

Yes you can VERY easily Cerakote wood if you follow the correct procedures.
Here is picture of a Ruger Scout with a laminated wood stock that I did not just a single color but a 3 color camo on it using heat cured Cerakote (H-series).
SO even though the laminated wood was worst because of all the different types of woods and different amounts of oils in them still was able to do a job that made everyone think it was a synthetic stock.
and YES everything got Cerakoted on that rifle including the bolt, firing pin, extractor, ejector and the inside of the action up to the chamber area with standard H-Series Cerakote. The scope is heat cured Cerakote with 2 colors (caps different colors) using a special method we developed to cure the heat cured Cerakote under low temps.
Those of you asking why use heat cured Cerakote over air cured the 2 simple answers are:
1) Fully cures in 2 hours vs 5 to 7 days for air cure
2) is around 20% harder and more durable than air cured Cerakote.
Cerakote Clear (air and heat cured) also make excellent clear coats over traditional wood finishes vs urethane and hand rubbed oils. You could pour Acetone, Paint Thinner even acids over Cerakote Clear and not damage it or the wood underneath.

Yes we do but currently moving to new location so the only coatings we are doing is Cerakote atm as the paint booth and compressor will be the last things we move out. We should be done with the move by early Nov. if you want to wait as currently I can not give and realistic turn around time would be the best thing.
