If looks could kill then you wouldn't even need to develop a load! I wish you'd offer these finishes. Your builds are too nice to be posting around here. Making one too many of us jealous

So many guys have asked for that finish, that I started offering it.
Thanks for the compliments.

i did not know that. When I purchase my 2 Zeus it wasn't offered that's too bad. Looks like another's got to come

That is one awesome looking setup.
Holy Crap, I know what coating I'm going on my next build. What kind of stock is it going in?

Not sure on the stock, the customer is taking it from here..

Mc-160? It seems to be pretty good stuff-- bought a gallon of it to do the tins on a brushed steel custom motorcycle project I'm building at home.
That acid etch would look wicked on the bike, too bad it only works on SS
Any longevity issues with that clear cerakote like chipping, pealing, or cracking? It's supposed to be uv stabilized and not yellow iirc too.
I love the acid etch, looks a bit like case hardening to my old eyes

That's the stuff. Haven't had any issues with it so far.

Good deal, it's really glossy, only takes a few light coats for recommended build up--- it takes auto polish/wax well so far in my test panel too to help protect from elements
You know anything that's similar to your "acid etch" for mild steel? You can pm me if you do. I'd love to add some accent areas on my project bike with that look

It tends to get glossy even though it's labeled a matte finish. Unfortunately I don't know if anything for mild steel.
