[QUOTE="jhibbard24, post: 1090048, member: 25072"] The big difference that I have personally noticed with do duracoat is the importance of prepping it correctly. Sandblasting metal to ensure good bond. I duracoated a barreled action with my airbrush and he did the prep work to save himself money. I told him I was not responsible for the quality or durability of it, as he only scotchbrited/scuffed it and then washed it down with brake clean. After 20 rnds the muzzle break was flaking off. But another rifle I did (.300 RUM) I sandblasted and then degreased very good and it is holding up just fine. The Cerakote process seems so much more costly and then you have to have a way to bake everything. Plus I have no intentions or faith in subjecting a fiberglass , carbon fiber, synthetic stocks to that kind of heat [/QUOTE]
