Looking at the video, it must be cured at 300 degrees for an hour, you also must use a 325 strainer and you must mix it at a 1:18 ratio with the hardner.

It's supposed to be thinner and tougher than H series cerakote.

So anybody try it?

We have a bunch of it. It's good stuff but as you noted requires a little different work to be done to apply.

The colors do come out very clean.

I have a lever gun prepped and ready to coat. Should be done mid week! I'll post pictures when I get it back together

I have sprayed a bunch of it.....I like it. Thinner, smother, and supposed to be more durable. I like it and will continue to offer to my clients.

In my opinion, no. It has a blue tone to it.

How does the elite series compare to Norell's MolyResin? They have similar paint hardness ratings and similar cure temps. Just a curiosity question.
