Cerakote:
What is it?
Cerakote: Next-Level Firearm Protection
Cerakote isn’t just a coating—it’s a serious upgrade. This advanced polymer-ceramic finish bonds to metal, plastic, polymer, and even wood, delivering unmatched durability and resistance to wear, corrosion, and chemicals.
Why Cerakote stands out:
- Originally engineered for firearms—now trusted across industries
- Ultra-thin at just 1 mil (vs. powder coating’s 2 mil minimum)
- Preserves engravings and tight tolerances
- Boosts performance without compromising fit or function
At Tailored Arms, we specialize in precision Cerakote applications that protect your investment and keep your firearm operating at peak performance.
The Benefits of Cerakote
Cerakote and their gang of mad scientists made this product with coating that is insanely thin but also crazy strong. The thin layer protects the moving parts from normal wear and tear like shooting and handling. It’s hydrophobic so water doesn’t like it too much, and sand is right up there as well. This means it repels water and sand… among almost every other element out there. It prevents rusting and pitting of firearms and can last for years!
Application:
How it's done
We follow a strict process when applying Cerakote to your firearm—disassembly, sandblasting, cleaning, painting, and baking. Sounds simple, right? Sure, but simple doesn’t mean easy. Cerakote is a meticulous, time-intensive process requiring expert precision.
Some Cerakote formulas air-cure, but most firearm coatings require oven-curing. That’s why we use full-sized, industry-leading ovens to ensure a hardened, long-lasting finish.
Complete disassembly—not just field stripping—is required. We don’t cut corners. Our Cerakote application is a professional-grade process designed for durability, precision, and performance:
✅ Thorough Prep: We strip and clean your firearm completely, ensuring a flawless base.
✅ Expert Application: Precision spray techniques provide even, consistent coverage.
✅ Oven-Baked Strength: Cured for maximum durability and resilience.
✅ Final Inspection: Every firearm meets our rigorous quality standards.
Cerakote isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about protection, longevity, and performance. Done right, it’s the best finish your firearm will ever have.
