What are you thinking of doing for a stock?
Heat bending the bolt might be an option if the temper of the steel ain't screwed up.
Bunch of instructional vids on the web.
I have looked at em , but never had a need to try it.

What the heck are all those punched in holes in that one picture???
Any idea what a previous person was thinking???
Amazing what people do to firearms sometimes and not in a good amazing.

I have had graphite black on 3 rifles.

Had midnight black and a gloss blue combo on another.

All turned out good.
As long as the person doing the cerracoating is professional and dont substitute steps or materials.
It comes out good.

When people start substituting or reusing media for blasting
Or using gasoline insted of acetone to clean before spraying.
Is what cause adhesion issues.
That is the reason you hear about bad cerracoat jobs alot of times.

One guy here in clarksville that gets alot of work and has a very good rep is the go to guy.
Some others leave alot and I mean alot to be desired.
Fly by night shade tree outfits, customers get ticked off and wish they had paid 30 or 40 dollars more to get it done by a person with a excellent rep insted of Billy bob and saved a few bucks.
Questions to ask are what do you use for media.
Silica based or glass based
Stay away from glass espically bead type
All it does is dimple the surface and not rough it up
Do you use fresh media for each job.
Yes is gtg.
Do you clean with acetone.
Yes is gtg.
People that clean with gasoline leave a deposit of petroleum film on it .
Cause,s the cerracoat to peel off eventually.
But they save money and snooker the client.
