Cerakote

What is Cerakote?

Simply explained, Cerakote is a composite epoxy coating made with a polymer-ceramic. Remember that Ceramic is an extremely hard substance. The end-result is that Cerakote can be applied to any hard surface, meaning that we regularly apply Cerakote to plastics, metals, and even wood. After a surface is coated in Cerakote, it becomes corrosion resistant, abrasion resistant, and chemical resistant (there are many other protective properties as well). Tests put Cerakote up against other popular coating options and all of them come up deficient in many areas, while Cerakote performs superb in every category.

Cerakote is available in over a hundred different colors and because it was originally manufactured for the gun industry, where tolerances matter, it achieves this amazing protection while applied at only a mil of thickness (one thousandths of an inch)!

More info:

• Formulated to withstand temperatures up to 1,800° Fahrenheit and thermal shock from those temperatures directly into water with no adverse effects.
• We mostly use this on our exhausts but we have done wheels, and many other parts.
• We also offer a clear coating which can go directly onto polished aluminum surfaces and still offer the same high temp and chemical resistance properties.
• Please check out their Cerakote website for every color offered.
• We offer air cure in any size part and oven cure for anything that will fit in our 18"x18"x18" oven.
• Oven cure is recommended for any firearm parts
