Cheaper than $100?
I would suggest Duracoating it yourself, since it will probably last as long as a budget cerakote job. Good luck! |

If you go cheap on cerakote I think corners are cut with the surface prep. My Hi Power has not been carried at all and rarely handled and it is losing some of the finish on high spots. Just food for thought |

Yeah uh, you wont get a pro cerakote job for $100. Has to be blasted, soaked in acetone, baked, soaked again, then sprayed, then baked, then done all over again if theres any fuck ups. My stripped lower/upper/tube was $160 in a single color - and that was a deal.

The skill set and labor and equipment to do a good cerakote job precludes your budget requirement.
Buy a big jug of acetone and a few cans of alumahyde from brownells and do it yourself. It will probably turn out far better than you think, and alumahyde when done right holds up pretty darn well. |

Tommy,
I have had 3 rifles done by the guys up at Iron Ridge. That and they put some a few new flashhiders on for me that were pinned and welded previously. They do great work, but they are slow and communication can be bit frustrating, all in all Ive gone back twice now and Ill probably keep doing so |

Had my SCAR for 4 months for a cerakote job, couldn't get an answer or return call. Showed up and got my rifle back, in the exact same condition I left it in. +1 for Tim @ Dangerlee Industries. Though he'll probably work with you on price, a case of beer doesn't put food on the table. |
