I'd love a step by step cerakote tutorial.

I vote for a light grey.

Be advised,  though Cerakote is awesome stuff, it CAN be chipped off and it also does go on thick enough to affect dimensionally sensitive parts.



I had a barrel Cerakoted before the FSB was installed and that was not workable.  I had to blast the barrel back down and now my choices are to

install the FSB first and have it recoated,  or go with a different finish.

I am very interested in Cerakote.

I have read that is does not add dimension..

I had my Springfield 1911 Cerakoted and I'm a huge fan. The texture is great in the hands and it looks outstanding.
