Cerakote'd my M&P


Recommended Posts

I've been dabbling in cerakote and this is my latest creation.  Color is burnt bronze...a unique color that I've always liked.

Did you do the frame as well as the slide?   Hard to tell from the lighting.  I like the color on the slide for sure.

Most interesting. As I've said before, not really a fan of ceracoat, but must admit you did a very good job. And not doing the sights leaves a nice contrast for it.

I'm not generally a fan either; but I think this color is so understated that it looks really good IMHO.  Leaving the sights and trigger black does add a nice contrast.  Might look even better with a black mag release and slide release, but I think it looks great as is.

Thanks for the positive response gentlemen.  To answer a few questions:

 

Yes, I did this myself.  It is pretty straight forward but you must take care in preparing the material to be sprayed.  I blast everything with aluminum oxide as outlined by cerakote.

 

Yes, the frame was coated as well.  only difference here is that you blast at a lower psi and heat at a lower temp so as not to distort or melt the plastic.
