You could also do them yourself.
Air cure C-series Cerakote and a ~$6 PreVal sprayer works just fine. |

Honestly, I don’t even bother cerakoting my form 1 cans anymore. I just glass bead blast the Ti tubes. Makes it a nice matte grey.

I have an airbrush and just spray on some high temp duracoat. I may just blast the next one though |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Thanks. Series C for suppressor stuff? Depends on your intended use. I have done both on my cans. C series holds up a lot better if you mag dump frequently, but if the can is banged around a lot it honestly doesn't hold up much better than high temp engine, caliper, or grill paint. My "normal" use cans get H series. My heavy use can, mounted to my 5" 7.62x39 AR with a binary, gets C series. And yes, blasting it is necessary. Everything, paint or gun coatings, adhere so much better. |

Has done a ton of work for me. Ask him about doing the high temp stuff. Very easy to deal with and quick turnaround times. |
