Dura Coat

The price is un-beatable! I am getting ready to coat a rifle.

What are your OP's on this?

I have used it only once but am quite intrgued. I coated a barrel on an M4. I also have Brownells Aluma-Hyde II, and intend to try it soon as well.
I coated an 870 Express with it (in a color called '870 Black'). So far it is tough as nails and shows no wear. The 870 has an extremely rough sand-blasted finish, making adhesion of the Duracoat superb. Adhesion on a gloss finish might not be near as good. Be very sure to degrease everything perfectly.

Searching the "net" I read that Dura Coat is far tougher than AlumaHyde.....we will see.
