DuraCoat is a two part chemical coating. Unlike other firearm finishes, DuraCoat was created specifically for firearms. Other finishes are "spin off's" from other industries. DuraCoat is permanent. With normal use, a firearm finished with DuraCoat will last several lifetimes. In the case of firearm finishes, a common misconception is "harder is better." This is faulty old school thinking. Hardness means brittle and brittle means chipping. DuraCoat, being elastic, will not chip or peal. Elasticity provides protection by "giving" when confronted with an impact. Elasticity also helps prevent scratches and mars. DuraCoat can withstand temperatures as high as 500-600 degrees F. With "normal" shooting, your barrel will never get close to being that hot. If you are fortunate enough to own a transferable machine gun, or if you like to "blaze" with your semi-auto, do not put DuraCoat on your barrel, as your barrel temperature will rise to over 1,000 degrees F. In those cases, we use DuraHeat. The DuraHeat coating can handle temperatures up to 1,800 degrees F. The Process - Firearms are completely disassembled and inspected; then degreased and bead or sandblasted were applicable. Ferrous metals are then Parkerized. DuraCoat is applied using HVLP spray equipment. Finally, after curing, the firearm is assembled, lubed and function checked. DuraCoat can be applied to most any surface and comes in 67 Stock Colors, 7 Electric Colors, 3 Sheens of Clear and 20 Camouflage Patterns. DuraCoat also well suited for salt-water environments. One its attributes is its extreme ability to resist salt corrosion. A firearm coated with DuraCoat simply will not rust...EVER!
