Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Rifle coating: cerekote?

Not mine but it’s a good, easy, basic idea.

Got a couplee guns with cerakoted.



People like Birdsong Black-T also.

Keep saying I’m gonna have one done, they arent too far from me in MS.

IMO, cerakote is a cosmetic finish, mascara for men,

Coat it if you want, but that won't make the rifle a weatherproof, no maintenance weapon.

Birdsong can at least coat the majority of the parts including the firing pins , bolts and such, but even that can scratch and chip.

What coating isn’t a cosmetic finish?

This is like a HIPAA law question I guess. Really hard.

A ceramic coating in regards to rust protection, is not the main intention of said product, but you already knew that,

there are better options than ceramic for weather proofing.

Ok, what? And which one provides 100% protection and isn’t cosmetic?

If you really care and you really want it weatherproof have it nitrided.

Or if you’re into colorful camo jobs or whatever you can have it painted but it’ll be but a shadow of the finish nitride is.

Or you could jerk it out of the stock a couple weeks before season and smear it down with Johnson’s paste wax, sight in and hunt all season and tear it down for a cleaning when you’re tagged out.

Somebody spain... are we talking cerakoted rifle or painted stock, or painted rifle and stock?

I'm thinking just metal. Have you seen a Dimension stock?

🤣🤣🤣

Be serious, even Stainless Steel isn't 100%

I’m just asking about this you posted. What’s not mascara?

Well, If you’re too [bleep] stupid not to do your own research than ask On here, maybe you should take note? We aren’t in charge of raising your kids, dumbass.

Dude, I almost killed my family transporting deer in a minivan.

We've already established in not in Mensa

Just trying to help, sounds like you need it

Do a toothbrush whack a mole job on the stock.
You cant fugg it up.
Have a granite like look that changes hue in different light.
Used a good matte clear coat over it.

My 3 fails at spray painting a stock on here .
Well documented.

Toothbrush whack a mole worked for me.

YMMV.

Dark green base coat
Black
Brown
Slightly lighter green.

Or one of the above for a base then use the others and even some other natrual earth tone colors.

Practice 1st to see how long a strike series will last before refresh
And get excess off your tooth brushes before going to the stock.
Work with speed and rhythm.
Let each color dry a day.
