THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT 1. I want to coat my AR receivers my question is, will a 400 degree rating be ok for the receivers? My range does not allow rapid fire :( ,but I still have no idea how hot they will get with a shot every few seconds. My main concern is the upper. 2. Same concern with the slide of my pistol. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!! |

Powder coating is very thick and when it goes through the ovens to heat the parts for curing, it hardens really well.
I would not consider powder coating a lower only because it will be hell in tight fit areas and pin holes. Look into norrell moly resin, gun kote or cerakote. May fit your needs better. |

This is not a good idea for firearms. Look into Cerakote, Duracoat, KG, and Moly-resin.

Yea I know about cerakote and the others, they would just be about 3 times as much and Im cheap. I knew nothing about the standard powder coating. Thanks for the input guys. Looks like I will use some good ole Rustoleum
