Thank you for the video, needed that for the project I am doing today. what setting are you using for the shadows? The typical settings I use for normal spraying is 2 turns on the top knob and 3 on the bottom knob.
If I could use only one word to describe this video, it would be OUTSTANDING! After watching several videos on cerakote, this one is, by far, the most informative and easy to understand!
So alumahyde 2 is like the least durable when it comes to spray on finishes right? Then duracote...and cerakote the best, or gun coat....my cerakote slide lasted right over 2 years of heavy duty and holster wear.
I have a Browning .270 BAR Lightweight rifle that I'm thinking might be a great candidate for Cerakote if I can't get it blued anytime within the year. I was told by two gun shops that it'd take over a year to get the gun finished if I wanted to go with bluing so now I'm considering Cerakote. The gun has a wooden stock so I don't want to go to crazy with colors, but it's going to be a gift handed down to my son. What do you recommend?
Great video! Question at 8:00 - you do not go over 220*F and typically 180*F. H series calls for 250*F for metals. Do you cure at a lower temperature for an extended period of time?
Much better way if doing this. A technique we using in spfx for marbling is spary your paint down then get a soft brush heavy with solvent and use the brush to push you paint into lines. Maybe i can show you we do this with silicone and acrylics all the time it shouldn't affext the paint as the solvent flashes off.
Great video.. i Painted cars for 10 + years and am now jumping in, trying to learn the full cerakote process. I have serveral guns that ive been wanting to do. Ive watched a ton of cerakote videos, and this by far, was the most the most informative. Really appreciate you taking the time to make this video. Definitely subbed 👍🏼
Awesome video! I’ve seen others spray a thick coat, cure, and scrape a ton of paint off with a sander but this method is a bit more conservative and I think it does allow for finer details that you can focus more on because there isn’t a ton of coating you have to remove!
