Cerakote

What is it

Cerakote provides a robust layer of protection against the elements. We have had it on everything from sunglasses to motorcycles with outstanding results.


From the manufacurer:
Cerakote is a ceramic based finish that can be applied to metals, plastics, polymers and wood. The unique formulation used for Cerakote ceramic coating enhances a number of physical performance properties including abrasion/wear resistance, corrosion resistance, chemical resistance, impact strength, and hardness. Each of these properties is rigorously tested to guarantee that Cerakote products remain at the forefront of the ceramic coatings market. Cerakote ceramic coatings utilize state-of-the-art technology to out-perform any competitive coating in both laboratory settings and real world applications.

How is it applied>?

Cerakote is applied in a multi step process and can quickly get complicated depending on the project. Most home applicators will use second hand ovens, poor prep techniquies and poor venting / painting air quality which can lead to pitting or flaking of the material. Staarting from thte minute we unbox your project, it is logged, photographed, and cleaned. Assembled firearms area all dissassembled degreased, media blasted, and coated separately. They are then baked in our large convection oven specifically builtt for cerakote and powdercoat. This whole process is time consuming, and any mistakes usually require starting from scratch.

Warranty

We will warranty any baked on coatings against the coating peeeling or flaking off for the life of the item. All air cure coatings will get a 1 year warranty against the same. Like any coating, they are the frontline against wear and tear of your coated object whether it's an exhaust manifold or a firearm. As you use it, activities like holstering, dropping and cleaning will wear the coating away. We can repair that however, this warranty will not cover normal wear and tear of the item(s). It does not cover any damage, alteration or abuse to the finish. This warranty also will not cover the item(s) itself against damage, abuse or misuse by it’s owner. This warranty covers the H-series Cerakote as applied by Simmons Custom Firearms. If your coating ever flakes your options are limited to a free refinishing in the same style or coating level previously applied. Please contact us for any warranty work. Shipping is not included in this.

In the event of a warranty issue, please contact us prior to shipping your item(s) for shipping instructions. Return shipping is at the cost of, and the responsibility of, the customer. We offers a Lifetime Guarantee only on products that we have done the Cerakote work on.
