Question about BUCKCOTE vs IonFusion

[DeSotoSky]

Are BUCKCOTE and IonFusion two names for the same thing or are they different?

 

[David Martin]

They are both coatings, in that respect they are alike. Yet, the coatings are different. Someone here knew it and posted that last time we discussed it but I don't know what the thread title was. Someone will be along that actually knows. Please excuse, DM

David, you got me looking for previous threads. The answer is... two names for the same thing. IonFusion was the later name. The name change was to emphasize that it wasn't really a "coating" but a true molecular bonding. A very good thread on it is here...

Of particular interest is CJ Bucks response #27.
