gemby58 I find your reply interesting. Not trying to sound like a 'know-it-all', but I am new to cerakoting and have followed the manufacturing instructions to the letter in an attempt to get the best results possible. You stated that 'unless the cerakote was done right and the rifle was parkerized before cerakoted' which implies that one must parkerize before cerakoting. I have never found that in the manufacture's instructions. Again, I am not trying to question your procedure, I am trying to learn. Thanks MPickle
Applying any spray on finish without properly preparing the metal is like painting a car without primering it first
