Custom Firearm Refinishing With Cerakote In Virginia

By Annabelle Holman


Cerakote is a ceramic based coating that will adhere to metals, plastics, fiberglass, polymers, and wood such as gun stocks; the coating and hardener chemically bond to form a very thin coating that can be applied to most surfaces. It is a unique finish that greatly improves several physical properties of your gun coating, including abrasion or wear resistance, corrosion and chemical resistance, as well as impact strength and hardness. It offers durability and will help protect your gun from any kind of weather condition, scratching or chipping.

A certified coatings applicator who is able to repair, refinish and coat guns can refinish your custom firearm with Cerakote - a superior quality gun coating that is more durable than either DuraCoat or Teflon based coatings by up to a factor of eight. Get your cerakote in Virginia for your custom firearm.

Each product is tested using ASTM International standards, which is a world leader in developing global standards that improve the safety, quality, and customer confidence in a product. Each product undergoes thorough testing so that Cerakote continues to be the leader in its field. Its ceramic gun coatings are superior quality, high tech products that consistently beat all of its competitors, both in the lab and in the real world.

Guns can be run dry without accelerating wear, which would otherwise occur, when coated with this durable finish. It has a very thin consistency, making it ideally suited to gun repairs, and because it can be applied thinly it is great for internal or external use; firearms coated with this finish continue to be identifiable.

Cerakote C- Series coatings for firearms are dry air cure, single component systems that are ideal for high temperature applications. With a heat stability rating of more than 1200 degrees Fahrenheit for long periods without failure, these coatings show an increase in hardness and resistance to abrasion with increased temperatures. Once fully cured, they provide greater resistance to corrosion and chemicals, and are excellent for gun stock refinishing.

Cerakote H- Series coatings for firearms are oven cured, two part systems with a hardener included. With a thermal stability rating of 500 degrees Fahrenheit and more for extended periods, these coatings offer increased hardness and very high resistance to abrasion. These finishes are among the best in the world, and are excellent for any project that requires a finish that is durable and highly resistant to corrosion.

Micro Slick is an internal, ceramic, air cured, dry film coating ideal for reducing friction on various internal firearm components, such as the bolt and bolt carrier. It does this by creating a lubricated surface that is permanent, thereby preventing galling and seizing of components. It reduces friction and wear between two surfaces of either similar or dissimilar materials. The Micro Slick coating becomes a part of the component, rather than a surface coating.

With a Cerakote coating from a certified applicator in Virginia, your firearm's performance and reliability are significantly improved; the ceramic base makes it unique amongst all other coatings. There is a color to suit any look or style, and will make your firearm look great, in addition to making it resistant to rough handling and even damaging weather.
