Our Cerakote Process

  • Surface Preparation

    The surface of the part needs to be thoroughly cleaned and degreased to remove any oil, grease, dirt, or rust. This step is critical to ensure that the cerakote adheres properly and provides maximum protection.

  • Apply Cerakote

    Once the surface is cleaned and dried, the cerakote is applied using a spray gun or airbrush. It's essential to apply the cerakote evenly and with the appropriate thickness to ensure proper coverage and durability.

  • Curing

    After applying the cerakote, the part is then cured in an oven at a specific temperature and time according to the manufacturer's instructions. Curing is a critical step that allows the cerakote to harden and provide maximum protection.

  • Final Touches

    After the part has been cured, any necessary touch-ups or finishes can be applied. This step may include sanding or polishing to achieve a smooth and even surface, as well as any necessary stencil work or designs to customize the appearance of the part.
