Cerakote??

[Stul]

Anyone have a recommendation for a local (Navarre/Pcola/Ft Walton) gunsmith who does quality Cerakoteing? (Not sure if that's even a word). Nothing fancy, just want to cote a beat up Mini-14.. basic black... Thanks...

Oak ridge gun range in Gulf Breeze has someone who does Cerakoting.

I haven't used them yet, Can't give a quality/price review.

 

[@Ktchnking]

The Oak Ridge partner is Scott Corley with Guardian Custom Coatings. He has done several guns/ projects for me and I recommend him completely.

His prices already fair, his craftsmanship is high, and he is constantly adding to his arsenal.

I've seen some great stippling/ laser/ engraving stuff from him.

His number is 850-543-5480.

I'll drop a picture of some of what he did for me.

I don't know but it wouldn't surprise me. His phone number is in my first comment. Give him a call.

There's some stuff called Dura-coat for do it yourself type folks. I've never tried it tho. Reviews online seem to like it tho. Anyways it's an option of ya decide to go that route.

Dura-coat is garbage.

 

[@Ktchnking]

I did a dura-coat project years ago. It was a two part system with lots of prep work. I don't regret the experience but I'd come up with something different if I was going to DIY again.

They advertise an aerosol all in one can product now but it seems to good to be true.

There was no comparison between my experience with duracoat and cerakote.

Duracoat isn’t as durable as Cerakote. We’ve used both. Duracoat scratches easily, has been our experience. We only use Cerakote, h series baked on finish- no scratching, rusting or discoloration, extremely durable.

Thanks. I've seen it spoke of online. And all the reviews was done right after application and none where done after long use. Good to know from someone who's seen it long term.

Here is an example of Blue Eye Buck’s work. Great communication, and quick turnaround for the job. Very happy with the results.

Very nice. I have a few pews I need to get refinished one day soon. Still have a few more to get off my list first tho. Then I plan to fall back and get the ones I have tweaked on. I'll keep this in mind tho thanks!

His work is outstanding, and his price is better than any others I have requested a quote from.

Another vote for Scott.

Does awesome work. I'm not too high on the Cerakote myself, but it's the gorilla in the market.
