The Cerakote Application Process

The journey to a perfect Cerakote finish begins with our comprehensive consultation process. During this initial phase, we work closely with you to select the perfect color and pattern combinations for your firearm. Our team develops a detailed project plan, establishes clear timelines, and provides a written estimate ensuring complete transparency throughout the process. 

Professional preparation follows, where our experienced technicians meticulously disassemble your firearm and prepare each component. This crucial stage involves thorough surface preparation and chemical cleaning in our environmentally controlled facility, ensuring optimal coating adhesion and longevity.

The application phase showcases our expertise as we carefully apply the base coat, create intricate patterns, and attend to every detail with precision. Each component goes through multiple quality inspections throughout this process, ensuring flawless coverage and pattern alignment.

Finally, after our curing process is completed, the part will go into the final inspection. During this process, your firearm is reassembled and thoroughly tested to ensure everything functions perfectly.
