Applied duracoat a couple weeks ago to a LC9S that was showing a lot of wear. Couldn't be happier with the results. I went ahead and did the slide and frame.. It looks awesome. Word of advice though, be patient after you're finished. It takes a few weeks for the paint to cure. I got impatient and putting the gun back together and marked up the finish a little putting the sights back on. Wasn't a huge deal, but I ended up lightly sanding and reshooting it with duracoat. I've left it alone this time.. Looks great If you have a old gun that has seen better days, give it a try. It will make it look great. Just be patient. It was a fun project to do and I love the results. I used the kit where you mix the paint and harder yourself and comes with a spray can, reducer, and scotch pad.. That's everything you need and can use the left over paint for another project.

+kinkydoints When properly applied, DuraCoat should not cause any tolerances issues with the areas of the Glock you mentioned or anywhere on the Glock. If your Glock slide has been treated with Tenifer, we recommend either scuff sanding the slide with 400 to 600 grit sandpaper or blasting with 120 grit aluminum oxide to ensure proper adhesion of the DuraCoat. We also recommend this same surface preparation procedure for the frame since most plastics are petroleum-based and this procedure will again help ensure proper adhesion. If blasting, be sure to begin with the pressure very low and test on an inconspicuous spot on the frame to ensure no damage to the frame occurs.

+DuraCoat Firearm Finishes So is it okay to use extra coats of different Duracoat for a camo pattern? Would you wait the full 3 weeks for curing before applying additional coatings? How many colors (cans) are too many? I want an ACU camo pattern and I believe that requires 4 colors.

@GOLTURBO555 8 жыл бұрын

Export it man!!!!!!!

@DuraCoatFirearmFinishes 8 жыл бұрын

+John Kennedy Yes, you can use multiple DuraCoat colors to create a camo pattern. The base coat should be applied using 3-4 thin, wet layers. This is the same as if you were only doing a single color on the firearm. This will provide the protection layer. All other colors added after are only for decoration, so only apply enough DuraCoat to provide the proper color and hide the color underneath. When completing a camo pattern, we recommend waiting a minimum of 2-3 hours after applying a color before applying templates and spraying another color. DuraCoat has a seven day working period however, so just be sure to complete the entire project within seven days after spraying the base coat. All of the camo pattern kits we offer (they're not available in an aerosol can kit however) can be found on our website here: www.lauerweaponry.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=category.display&category_ID=829. A four-color camo pattern will not be too many colors. As long as the application instructions are followed correctly and layers are applied in a thin manner, there shouldn't be tolerance issues from too much DuraCoat being applied.

Any areas that you don't want to coat should be masked/plugged before coating.

@DuraCoatFirearmFinishes 7 жыл бұрын

DuraCoat is an air-cured product, no matter which method you're using to apply it (aerosol or spray equipment), and so no baking is needed. The hair dryer was used as a simple way to blow air on the surface in between each layer of DuraCoat in order to flash off the solvents. The flashing off of the solvents can also be achieved by waiting ten minutes between each layer. If using air, the air does not need to be hot, it just needs to be blowing air. A heat gun can be used but only on its lowest setting. Also, make sure that the material you are using it on can withstand that heat without damaging it. But like we said, heat is not necessary.

@DuraCoatFirearmFinishes 10 жыл бұрын

The Aug Green and Magpul OD Green colors are actually quite different because Magpul OD Green has quite a bit of gray in it compared to Aug Green. This causes Aug Green to be a much more "greener" green when the two are compared. Also, both of these colors will be available in the new DuraCoat Aerosol in January 2014. DuraCoat adheres essentially equally as well to both metal and polymer. As long as proper preparation procedures are followed, DuraCoat should adhere excellently to metal, plastic, wood, etc.

A few questions, First does sand blasting the part to be Duracoated give it better adhesion? Second it looked as if all that was needed was a hairdryer between coatings, but after the 4th coat, how long does it take to cure and does it need to be baked?

@DuraCoatFirearmFinishes 10 жыл бұрын

Media blasting the parts with either sand or 60 to 120 grit aluminum oxide before DuraCoating is always recommended when someone has the access and ability to do so. A blasted surface will provide the optimum substrate for DuraCoat to adhere to. DuraCoat is dry to the touch in twenty minutes, you can handle it in an hour, and you can reassemble and use the item the next day. Only submit the item to light use at this time though. A full cure is reached in 3-4 weeks. DuraCoat does not need to be baked. You can bake DuraCoat to speed up the initial dry time but it will not speed up the final cure time and will not make the DuraCoat any more durable. The hairdryer in the video was used as a simple method of speeding up the flashing off of the solvents in between coats. The use of the hairdryer speeds up the process but has the same effect as leaving the part sit for 5-10 minutes in between coats.

geists2k We are sorry to hear that you were dissatisfied with your results with our DuraCoat Aerosol. Due to the UV Hardener in the DuraCoat Aerosol, the sheen on all colors will be glossy at first. The sheen should slowly settle down to its proper level (that would be a matte sheen for both of our Matte Black and BlackHawk Coyote Tan colors) after about 3 to 4 weeks. If the colors were still glossy after 3 to 4 weeks, then something during the application process may have caused the increase in sheen. It sounds as though you were able to resolve the issue on your own, but we still encourage you to give us a call at 1-800-830-6677 or send us an e-mail to info[at]lauerweaponry[.]com.

@DuraCoatFirearmFinishes 8 жыл бұрын

+Donovan Corcoran In this video, nothing was done differently to the surface of the slide where it meets the frame than was done to the rest of the surface of the slide. DuraCoat is a rather thin coating, so for the vast majority of handguns there are no tolerance issues. Therefore, the vast majority of slides and frames can be coated without needing to be concerned about where the slide and frame meet. However, if you are concerned about tolerance issues, you can always apply slightly less DuraCoat (down to approximately .5 mils) to the tight tolerance areas or you can mask them off entirely.

I saw this video and thought this would be much easier and just as good as Cerakote. It was until both nozzles got so clogged I could not use it. I shook it well, not sure what went wrong.

Product looks good but how will it perform on the slide where it mates to the lower (the grooves where it slides back and forth)? Presumably, there will be some wear over time, if that was to happen will the worn edges start to lift of flake off?

@DuraCoatFirearmFinishes 6 жыл бұрын

When DuraCoating the areas you're referring to, you will first want to take your specific firearm's tolerances into consideration. DuraCoat was created specifically for firearms, so it is a thin coating that should not affect the tolerances of most firearms. However, if your firearm has very tight tolerances in this area, then you will want to mask off those areas and therefore not coat them. In the vast majority of cases where you can coat these surfaces, there will be wear over time. Areas of moving, metal-on-metal contact are going to incur wear over time. When the surfaces are properly prepared and the coating applied correctly, there should not be any flaking or chipping just simply wear over time.

What was changed from this older style of DC vs the new can which has a longer shelf life once activated?

@DuraCoatFirearmFinishes 6 жыл бұрын

The actual DuraCoat inside of the new can versus the older can is unchanged. To improve the user-experience and shelf life, some tweaks were made to other components within the can.

When spraying my AR15 lower do I need to tape off anything like the threads for the buffer tube or any of the pin holes?

@DuraCoatFirearmFinishes 10 жыл бұрын

You may certainly tape off anything you wish not to coat, but there is no need to tape off threads or pin holes. DuraCoat is a rather thin coating, so tolerances are not an issue. You should be able to DuraCoat your entire AR15 lower without any worries.

Lou S. Makes an excellent point. If you only have a couple of small parts to paint, you've thrown $35 away if you can't find something worthwhile to use the rest of it on in 48 hours! And yes, there ARE people out there who have a firearm hobby, but don't have a lot to spend on it. If you have money to blow, I'm happy for you. But that's no reason to look down your nose at someone who is frugal, for whatever reason.

Would you have to use an adhesion promoter for polymer, or other plastic pieces?

@DuraCoatFirearmFinishes 7 жыл бұрын

Our DuraCoat Adhesion Promoter is an excellent product! It is not required, but it allows you to skip the sanding or blasting when coating plastics and synthetics. Simply degrease, apply the Adhesion Promoter, and spray with DuraCoat!

I bought the Aerosol can in magpul flat dark earth color. It works as intended and couldn't be easier. It just takes some time to prepare it before applying the paint. Only question I have is how long should I wait before pulling out any masking tape that I applied to my lower and upper receiver to cover certain areas not to be painted?

@DuraCoatFirearmFinishes 10 жыл бұрын

In this scenario, you should wait at least until the next day before removing the masking tape.

Can I duracoat raw 1018 steel after I sandblast the top layer of material off of it? Is this a bad idea should I just pay someone to blue it professionally?

I know this may be a longshot, but will DC work on Hogue rubber products? Or will the very slight flex of the rubber cause cracking, flaking?

@DuraCoatFirearmFinishes 10 жыл бұрын

We do not recommend DuraCoating Hogue rubber products. What can tend to happen is the rubber will harden and crack, therefore causing damage to both the product and the DuraCoat.
