I know this has been asked before but with only 30 day limit in search, well, I'm screwed.
Who does Ceracoat in Alaska and opinions of quality of work and contact info.

Until that day,
Darkop

I know Dylan at 7.62Precision used to do it or duracoat and did awesome work.  Not sure how he's faring after the whole Mako fiasco on here though.  I imagine there are a couple outfits down in the Anchorage area.

Up here in Fairbanks, we have Interior Coating Experts that do good work, and one or two others, but no names coming off the top of my head.

my glock: (I did the piss poor color fill on lettering)





my 5.56SBR:





my 300BLK SBR:





and he's done an AK, and is doing my 458Socom SBR right now. I told him to go nuts on some camo pattern and have fun with it... can't wait to see what he comes up with. Dunno if you can see it, but on both SBR's I had hime color the upper/lower combos, BUT the picatinny rail was to be left black. You cannot find a wobble in the paint line... it's razor sharp from one end to the other. I also had him do a suppressor mount for my 308LR, and he was not happy with the first, or the second coating. He was trying to match the brushed stainless look of my barrel, and he had 3 versions of Cerakote stainless silver to use.It was the third one that was the  charm, even tho the other 2 were really, really close. He just was not happy, and kept redoing it until HE was happy (I was perfectly OK with the first version).
Anyways, call him if you want something done. I will continue to use him as I think he does quality work. Besides being a factory trained Cerakote guy, I think he just does great work and is a bit of a perfectionist. Which is not a bad thing.

WOW! Very nice. How long is the barrel in that shortest SBR?

The sniper grey SBR has a 7.5" 5.56

The 9mm on the bottom has had a few configuration changes to include a 4.5" barrel and handguard that goes over the can a little.  I'm thinking about asking Phil to do it in bazooka green..

Btw, if you want to see what colors look like in real life, check out the Cerakote site.  They'll send up to 5 samples out free for you.  They paint them on thin sheet aluminum so you see what they look like as a finished product on metal.

Case in point, I really liked the Tungsten but it really looks more like a metal flake silver in person.  Wanted something darker, but wouldn't have known that till after getting the work done.

If anyone is in Anchorage, Phil @ Precision Cerakote also has most all the colors coated on knife blades for inspection. I agree with NorthPolar... seeing them in person may change your mind. My 5.56 SBR was done in the Dark Bronze after I decided the Burnt Bronze was not dark enough when I saw it in person. Phil added 25% black to the Burnt and bingo! the perfect color. BTW, edited my post above with the pics... not sure why but the links were broken?
