Quick Caviat I run a cerakote certified company but do tell people that sometimes it's not the right coating. This thread is more a show and tell and also be honest about the products limitations.
quick background cerakote/ guncoat and a few other ceramic paints where developed inititally in the petrol chemical industry, they are extremely hardwearing, thin film... a few microns thick... you should be able to cover a bolt and nut and they should still be able to fit together. at sometime after it's development someone went hang on.... and used the product to protective coat all manner of things. It's uses are still expanding the colour range is getting bigger every few months...
the paint fall into two catagories with a sub catagory
oven cure - two part paint, can be a pain to use benefit quick turnaround for clients around 70 colours
oven cure - "extreme" used mainly for firearms, assorted production kit used in very agressive environments. It's even tougher but has limited colours...
air cure - is the simplest to use, it's premixed least hassle but takes longer to fully cure out. High Temp applications such as exhausts use this type of paint. around 40 colours
now for some pictures
