Though they also say KG is good stuff.

Many also noted that quite a few Cerakote applications are done by people who don't know what they're doing, and just spray it on like Krylon--whereupon it works about as well as Krylon.

Having the advantage of using both products personally under hard use I would disagree.

It's not hard to test out.

Whats your schedule look like this spring?

Might be an interesting article.

Hey, John, when you two meet up and do your testing, don't forget to mention who did the Cerakote on the rifle you show him.

If it wasn't you.

LOl.

I don't do CeraKote any more because I prefer GunKote.

So it would be a bit silly for me to provide any Cerakote samples.

JB is gonna have to come up with top flight CeraKote to abuse.

It would be interesting to see different treatments gettting abused.

Who here would read that article?

I had really good luck with ceracote by Eddie Fosnaugh. Not a light duty rifle either.

CK really is worth it with a cm action and ss barrel.
