Factory Cerakote

[Hulk2e]

I’m curious about the factory Cerakote versions offered in OD or Armor Black. I know glassblasted and sandblasted titanium is hard to beat for wear. Does anyone have experience with how the Cerakoted versions wear?

I don't know about CRK's Cerakote, but it hasn't been that durable on anything that I have. Gun barrels, knife blades, titanium frames, clips, etc. They all show wear.

I found a guy on here that does Cerakote- I sent him all my hardware for a new Inkosi build.
He has a great warranty too, with free replacement work.

While my experience with Cerakote is minimal (I've much more long term experience with PVD/DLC), it seems I can't argue with his warranty.
I'm looking forward to getting this Inkosi buttoned up today after work!

At the end of the day it’s a ceramic paint.

It will wear and chip off as it relies on mechanical adhesion.

That’s what I was thinking.

I appreciate the input.
