Well I have had the thing sloshing around in the trunk of my car since I took it to shoot it. It was during irene and I went to a family members house to use the shower. Needless to say I didnt get a chance to shoot it and left it sloshing around in my trunk with a battery charger, some shoes, a flash light, some loaded mags, and roadside emergency box. No scratches or chips. Eventually I will have to bead blast it and do it again because some of the goo used between the barrel and trunion flowed out under the finish while it was baking. The finish seems to still be strong there but it has a brown tint. I also sat in my house the night after doing the finishing working the safety leaver. Finally, after probably close to 500 cycles the demple where the leaver stops has a small piece of metal showing. This is much better than I thought since this is usually the first spot to go.
The 1 lb box of powder cost me about $3 and I have hardly used any of the stuff. There is almost no wasted powder. Also some facts pulled from the powder facts show that the stuff is applied anywhere between 1-2mils thickness. Duracote is anywhere from .5 - 1 mil. Coats like gunkote shows much thinner but I found that it has to be applied thick or it chips easy and wears off quick.
I did some video of my application of the stuff. I will post it to youtube later.
