Duracoat is a two-component product that must be mixed and applied using an airbrush or similar spray equipment. Dry times are also significantly longer.
If you were to do this exact samething to, say, a Glock, would it work?
I got my Duracoat set up workin and tested it on my Sako Quad. It looks a lot better put together but the light parts are way too light for me. I'm gonna have to touch it up some to keep the squirrels confused. Next I gotta JB weld up some custom grippage on my 22/45 after a light blasting and coat it.
I have used Kyrlon on a couple of rifles I used to own. If I decide to do my M4, I'm going to get the shake and spray kits from Durakoat. Sure, the cost will be higher, but I do not want to do a half *** job either.
This is one of the two AKs I've done, using WalMart Camo Krylon paint and a mesh laundry bag. I masked over the wooden forearm because I didn't want to paint it right away.
