Hey Eddie.
You seem to take issue with whenever I recommend using the NIC, "find an applicator" tool. Why is that?
To universally recommend avoiding formally educated applicators who have invested in their business by becoming Certified is an insult to NIC and the thousands of Certified applicators that take the business seriously. Getting Certified gains any applicator knowledge that can only be learned from the maker of the product from objective laboratory testing and from the feedback from tens of thousands of applications without having to subject customers to these pitfalls while the applicator gains experience and feedback. That in depth knowledge is absent from someone that is not certified. Without objective laboratory testing even “experienced applicators” mistakes could go unnoticed and brushed off as a shortcoming of Cerakote.

That's probably what happened to fireball2's rifle that the cerakote scratched off. He didn't happen to send his rifle to you, did he?
