Frequently Asked Questions
Cerakote is a ceramic-based coating that provides superior protection against corrosion, scratches, chemicals, and everyday wear. It is much more durable than traditional paint and is available in hundreds of colors and finishes for a truly custom look.
We can Cerakote firearms, AR parts, pistol slides, magazines, optics, suppressors (where applicable), knives, tools, automotive parts, and many other metal or polymer items. If you're unsure whether your item can be coated, contact us and we'll be happy to help.
Cerakote is specifically engineered for high-performance applications. It offers excellent durability, corrosion resistance, chemical resistance, and UV stability while maintaining a thin coating that doesn't interfere with the fit or function of your parts.
Absolutely! We offer hundreds of Cerakote colors, custom color combinations, camouflage patterns, battleworn finishes, and specialty effects. If you have inspiration photos, we'd love to bring your vision to life.

Yes! In many cases, we can closely match a specific color by custom mixing Cerakote colors. If you have a color sample or inspiration photo, we'll work to create the closest possible match. Before we apply the coating to your firearm or parts, we'll show you the custom-mixed color for your approval. That way, you can be confident you're happy with the color before the Cerakote process begins.
No. Cerakote is applied in an extremely thin layer and, when professionally applied, maintains proper tolerances and reliable function.
Our typical turnaround time is about two weeks from the time we receive your project. However, turnaround times may vary depending on our current workload, the complexity of your project, and holiday schedules. We'll provide you with an estimated completion time when you drop off your firearm or parts.
