| Anyone know the difference between these 2 coatings? Which is better and why? I just paid off a Glock 17 with what I thought was NIB-X as the sales tag advertised but inside the box has a TALO EXO label in it so they just mixed up what was actually on the gun. Just wondering how good the EXO coating is compaired to NIB-X. Thanks for any info! |

TALO Glocks are EXO coated by Fail Zero, which I thought was the same exact thing as Nickel Boron. But I'm not sure how NiB-X differs from NiB. I'm sure someone will be along to clarify.
But in the mean time, check out Fail Zero's site for more info on EXO coating: http://www.failzero.com/ |
They're either the same or extremely close to the same. Both are electroless nickel boron coatings. CCR makes CPII and it's also pretty close to the same. I have 4 guns by CCR and the coating seems pretty impervious to wear. I have a G30 with thousands of holster presentations and probably 3-4k rounds through it since it was refinished and it still looks new.
