Ceramic Coating Technical Information

Cerakote application process

Cerakote can be applied to almost any product. For metal products, we recommend sandblasting prior to coating, to make sure the coat adheres effectively to the product. See more about our abrasive blasting services here. Firearms must be disassembled prior to blasting and coating.

• First, it is beneficial for your part to be cleaned, either chemically or by abrasive blasting
• The product is racked
• A single coat of the ceramic coating is wet sprayed onto the part or product using a spray gun
• The part is oven baked to cure the coating
