Have a few projects I'd like to coat.
I own an air compressor and not opposed to buying a blasting gun and airbrush to do my own projects.
I have enough ideas already that I could easily start saving money opposed to professional services even with buying an airbrush and blasting gun.
I am looking at a few different projects. First is the barrel on my first precision rifle build. Just barrel and brake. Action is nitrided.
Next is a Kimber Montana stock and barreled action. Heavy use hunting rifle and I don't care for their stainless finish or the blue stock.
Next is a S&A J frame back-up gun. The aluminum finish is wearing off.
I don't know what'll be better. Cerakote C or Duracoat.
If I go with Cerakote, I might go with H series on the J frame. I can do that in my oven...but I'm not putting Kevlar fiberglass stocks in there.
Any argument for Duracoat or Cerakote? Anything else to look at for at home application? Leaning towards Cerakote. Seems like Duracoat goes on heavier. I have a G19 slide Cerakoted and it's proven itself to me.
I'd imagine it'll be something I use more often if I have it available. Some stuff I'd do just because I can and it won't cost what it would for me to have done.
Thanx!
