with many 2 part [catalyzed] product you can keep it from gelling by putting into the freezer as soon as you're done with your first use. It won't last indefinitely but I have used on catalyzed urethanes 24 hrs. later. It still sprays well, & man does that paint set fast. This technique might just work with this product.

[@tech_gear]

I've really been wanting to duracoat my current EDC knife, Sog Aegis Mini. Really appreciate all the work you put into your videos Scout. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!

[@s_android]

LBS: Advertises Duracoat. LBS: Shows us a gun with Cerakote. Me: : |

[@Stacked27]

If it hasn't already been said, the reason there is such a short time that the can is usable is because the hardener does just that, hardens. Once mixed with the paint it starts a chemical process, the one that makes the finish so durable, which can't be stopped and doesn't take all that long..

[@ThermalWedgie]

I would apply it onto my Mossberg 500. This gun is subjected to the elements quite often, so a duracoat finish will definitely help with corrosion resistance. And I bet the color will contrast pretty well with the wood.

[@MichaelTravis12c27]

This certainly looks easier than the airbrush method I've used in the past. As long as you can do it in a once and done timeframe.

[@teamklr2bar]

Hey man, FYI, if you or any of the other the notable KZbin content providers need any gunsmith work give me a yell and I will take care of you guys. I do it all, full machine capabilities, weld and fab, all types of coatings including PVD coatings as well. Just wanted to let you know. and Great video !

[@57mota]

I am making my version of a Chris Reeve Pacific knife for my friend's son. Not only would it look cool, but it would help cover up some scratches that would take forever to polish out.

[@richardthomas6292]

For some one who never refurbished gun metal, I found this most helpful.

[@muddnyreye]

I'd like to duracoat my first gun a H&R 20 ga. single shot . Given to me by my grandfather. It's seen better days but what do you expect I took it everywhere and taught all my kids and many new shooters with it. It deserves a make over.

[@lancekimmel]

I have a Rock Island 1911 that I have dehorned and added a beavertail safety grip to. I have been researching different finishes and believe dura coat is the way to go.

[@charlescollier7217]

Thanks for the opportunity, and for the heads up about the practical considerations of the product. I have a couple of blades I regularly use in the woods that I stripped and forced patina on, mainly because their stock coatings were terrible. But I find that that the forced patina simply isn't sufficient rust protection for high carbon steel in my environment, and I end up having to give more maintenance to the blades than is practical for the grunt work I demand of them. I had just started looking for options to put a further protective coating on them, and then this video showed up. I like that kind of serendipity.

[@12beu2be]

Informative video, thank you sir. I would coat a Bersa Thunder for my wife, I messed up the finish removing some surface rust, and she hasn't let me forget it yet.

[@flashider556]

Glock 17 gen4; I have a early one that has a real slick slide that makes it hard it rack with sweaty hands. And, if enough left a Cold Steel Voyager Vaquero XL.

[@drewhobbs6837]

First my duck gun, 870. Also my Ruger American HMR. Metal only. Hope to see even my great grandkids shooting these. Not the most expensive guns but the ones that see the hardest wear hunting in all weather.

[@kasper7106]

My grandpa just recently gave me the first gun I ever shot(30years ago) an Ithaca lever action 22LR. It was in pretty rough shape when he gave it to me. I have since sanded it down to get rid of the rust and would like to refinish the little 22 with the Duracoat. thanks

[@billyjacobs965]

I would duracoat my Remington 870. Have had rust issues in the past and this would give it an awesome look.

[@formerpilgrim4934]

I was setting up an M4 for my son who is heading off to Basic at Benning soon, and gathered a bunch of parts so the rifle would closely resemble the M4 A1's he will be training with. Well, the base rifle had been sprayed with Krylon in a camo pattern, and I decided to take that off, and everything came off...except some of the green... and now the barrel and receiver have a kinda lime green color to them! Be nice to cover this up with FDE Duracoat!

[@TheLateBoyScout]

Sounds great.

[@phantomego123]

Blackhawk holster, Knife, and sheath, maybe stencil ammo cans if there is enough left.

[@justindr.yaegertodd6220]

I watched a DUTACOAT video with the guy from LAUER CUSTOM WEAPONRY, and he said you only need to let it cure for a day. PERSONALLY, I am going to use a heat gun at low temp the day after I do it.

[@DocTacDad]

I have a pretty good amount of time and experience with Duracoat and I think it's a decent product. Get vid!

[@galamonkey]

I have a single shot Stevens 12ga that I built. I chopped down the stock and barrel. 18.5" barrel, shorter LOP stock. Added a fiber optic front bead, painted the stock black, added a side saddle and limb saver. Shooting a 3" slug in a shotgun that weighs 4lb 15oz is a KILLER on the shoulder. I built it as a cake on a survival gun boom stick type thing. I don't really shoot it very often, but it's super small, light, and looks pretty mean. I think it would be even cooler if the barrel another metal parts were FDE.

[@makman1962]

galamonkey Sounds absolutely awesome. Would love to see pics. I've got a H&R/NEF 12 gauge single shot that I want to "upgrade"...

[@galamonkey]

Heres a thread with some pics. www.defensivecarry.com/forum/defensive-rifles-shotgun-discussion/207632-single-shot-12ga-project.html

[@TheLateBoyScout]

Wicked!

[@galamonkey]

Thanks man, with some stout loads it does quite the job on your shoulder.

[@makman1962]

galamonkey Thanks for the pics! Good job. Quite the inspiration for my own project!

[@carlosmurphy4u1]

I did my Mosin with 4 coats of this stuff, VERY pleased with the outcome.

[@pontiacmaniac2]

I have used Duracoat quite a bit, and it's a good product, this last time, I tried Cerakote and It's harder to apply since I used the Oven cure version, and all I can say is that I won't be using Duracoat anymore, The Cerakote is better, but definitely more expensive.

[@thegreenman2030]

Steel Shooter Correct Cerakote-c(ceramic) is far superior to anything Duracoat makes. It's cost a bit more and is a longer process but it's worth it and will have a much longer wear life compared to anything else on the DIY market.

[@BudgetEDCr]

I would love to use it on my Ruger Mini 14. So far I have a Primary Arms red dot on it, Hogue over mold stock, Choate heat shield and Choate M14 style flash hider.

[@progull]

I would duracoat either my winter wheels for my vehicle in maine. Or my rem 870 and my gsg 1911-22

[@Rotativo25]

Awesome! Thanks for the opportunity to win that can! I want to coat my bushmaster AR 15 to match what you have going on with your M&P. I liked the look of it!

[@kevinl4966]

I have a SW Model 10, PD trade in. Hardley any bluing on the old girl, but she,s a classic and still needs some love and care. I have 2 Star Super B stable mates, that also would be thrown into the pool with the model 10 when it comes to tappin the can. Thats a three fer. "Waste not want not" And thanks for the Duracoat info. As always, very informative. Thanks for all your efforts.

[@artmac8970]

i just purchased my first firearm about a month. I would duracoat that g19 I recently purchase and some knives that i have spray painted in the past can now get a proper duracoat job on them. Thanks for the heads up on this product looks awesome.

[@Guak2]

I have a savage bolt action that I've working on for a few years now. The last step was to spray it down somehow. Plus i have a few knives i wanna duracoat also.

[@blubben17]

I actually have been meaning to get a can of that, I wanted to refinish the rail system in my AR to match the FDE Magpul furniture I have on it and I also wanted to refinish the scope for my long range rifle in FDE.

[@bubba60098]

I would Duracoat the grip and frame of my full size Beretta PX4 in 40 S&W. Leaving the Slide (Suberb Finish) and all the controls in black for contrast.

[@aerosaaber]

this would be perfect for my old/beatup AR magazines

[@Bassmaster32291]

I would dura coat the frame on my springfield xd9, a couple of knife scales, and maybe a fishing reel lol. Good luck everyone!

[@cj2086cm]

I want to coat the receiver set for the 18" build that I am working on. I think out would look great and this stuff seems to be just the thing to use.

[@KK40384]

I need to duracoat my new 15" Midwest Industries LR308 M-Lok rail in FDE. It only comes in black and the rest of the rifle is FDE

[@OutdoorManly]

I'd dura pay my new g27 slide, then try to get some of my AK coated. Probably would have to buy another can or two to finish the AK.

[@andrewth13]

I wouldn't mind doing a little work on my GSG 1911-22. A bit of duracoat would definitely masks it stand out.

[@MABER_FETT]

Im going to use the Duracoat on my new Troy Alpha Rail on my AR Project!

[@TheKaosUSMC]

I have a tool bag in putting together for my wrangler. I want to paint up all the tools!

[@kcha2890]

I'll use that can on my ATI-15 upper and lower receiver. I love fde guns. I have that same moe sl stock along with the moe sl handguard plus the k2 pistol grip. All in fde of course.

[@SimpleDragon1328]

I have always wanted to try duracoat on an older mountain bike frame. My cross necklace would look pretty sweet duracoated too. Thanks for the video!

[@justsmy5677]

I would Duracoat my new AR-15. I bought a rifle kit and a lower and have not put it together yet. This will be my first build, so think it would be a good idea to Duracoat it prior to building it. I ordered the furniture in Flat Dark Earth, so it will be a perfect match! Love your channel, especially the stuff with Nutn.

[@VictoryOrValhalla14]

Duracoat my G42 slide to match my G19 that's FDE. Excellent info I had no idea duracoat made this product. Usually just use Krylon on my AR and PaP. Looks good when the Krylon starts to wear off.

[@TheLateBoyScout]

Nice!

[@FletchDoesIt]

I would like to Duracoat my Strikefire so it matches the rest of the furniture on my S&W MOE M&P 15.

[@neumandl564]

Love the Duracote option and I want to use it on my FX M3 Impact to dress it up.

[@timclimer2497]

Building a 10 22 takedown into a survival/ bug out bag gun. While I prefer black on most of my guns. I'm thinking this 1 needs to be a little more camouflaged.

[@drmaudio]

Knowing my personal limitations, I leave painting to the professionals (or more talented amateurs). It is a very cool project though.

[@johnkennedy9078]

Yeah their vid says the can would stretch for 2 firearms, but I immediately had my doubts, simply from knowing that the contents are smaller than a typical spray paint can

[@johnkennedy9078]

still, I'm going to make an order shortly 😁

[@boostimalaka1]

duracoat will give an orange peel look. The high polished blue spray will look good if done properly. The problem with duracoat it's paint and will chip and peel. Cerakote is a better finish. If you have a blued pistol and want that bright blued look, have it hot blued instead.

[@ONLY_FXRS]

I would duracoat my new mossberg 500 magpul furniture and if I still had some left I'd do the blade on my kershaw blur. It would look great with the od green handles.

[@robfromaz1977]

I would Duracoat parts of my AR. I like the two tone look your M&P has. And maybe the handle scales of my BK7.

[@TheLateBoyScout]

Very cool

[@rs1996a]

My Remington 870. Love Magpul FDE.

[@backcountryMok]

I would use it to coat my M&P 45, plus whatever optic I end up with on my AR. Still looking forward to the UTG rail install. Thanks and good luck to all!

[@grize9999]

Was looking to coat my beretta 92, thanks for the chance to win.

[@jduckett1985]

I'd love to duracoat my first ever stripped lower in fde to match my aero precision fde upper.

[@bedub33]

Hey, great vid. I've recently added an Ithaca model 37 to my collection. The shot gun has seen better days. Re-blueing it was a project for the future (a project I can see myself putting off over and over). After learning a little here, I now know FDE is the way to go. Keep up the good work.

[@slybyer12]

I would duracoat either my M&P 15 or my 10/22 Takedown

[@Jerm1179]

Just bought a new tacstar ruger 10/22 and I'm dropping a bullbarrel in it..... I'd love to duracoat the keystone stainless, threaded, fluted barrel that I just ordered to match the camo stock

[@mckwilly]

Nice work I want in,I will be doin the frame for my P22, furniture for a Mossberg and my C9 anything left will do some ammo cans, thx for GAW

[@fharelson4]

I'd spray my glock 42 Also griptilian blade I blasted (and is now rusting) my edc stream light And whatever else I'd think of between now and then

[@courtneymellinger9274]

i think it would be cool to coat some of my knife scales in that color especially my ZT 0350

[@MaliciouslyCompliant]

I would do my complete PSA Magpul edition lower.

[@JDL9615]

My Sig Sauer 1911-22 FDE sure needs to be re-finished.

[@TheTactical6string]

Im surprised at a couple things, firstly Ive been Duracoating for 5yrs and one 4oz ($18) bottle lasts about 3 complete AR's and this goes to what I always say, thin multiple layers will give you the best results and Ive used leftover Duracoat more then a year after I opened it with no issues so this Aerosol doesnt make a lot of sense. Also you dont have control over the amount of hardener in it and it looks quite glossy vs using the regular stuff. Id certainly love to give this a try and compare it against my items Ive done with an airbrush, as far as what id spray, probably my Benelli SuperNova.

[@eisak8334]

I'd love to paint my super awesome ruger charger project, yes please and thanks for the chance to give duracoat a try

[@PaulDukich]

Good video... looks like a good option if you're doing a number of coatings at once. I'm building an AR and I'd coat a few parts along with a Mossberg I have that's a little banged up.

[@Paul_4Peace]

I would use it for my mosin I have an od green archangel stock for I'd use it on the barrel and possibly the bolt to see if it would mess up the clearance on the bolt.

[@Commanderhurtz1]

Whoo! Very good FTE on the rails, I like! I really wanna paint some of my magazines as a starter, I'v painted a few of my mags with Krylon already, and I like it so far. Good luck with your projects!

[@viper11791]

I'd duracoat my G20 or maybe my R700. Might also look good on my spyderco endura.

[@musthavecoffee1078]

I would like to Duracoat my Midwest Industries rail on my Colt M4. My BCM stock and grip are FDE, so it would be cool if my rail matched.

[@mcaulfield96]

I want to Duracoat a couple of pieces on my Benelli supernova to give it dark earth accents on a black background

[@jbpmidas]

I have a Revelation shotgun (Mossberg 500) that is set up for "home defense." It is still the original finish and could use some prettying up.

[@mdhargis]

Good info Late. Thanks! I would Duracoat some of my AK mags and probably my adjustable Tapco stock.

[@bwax1542]

I have an old AR15 with parts from all over with various shades of color. I would like to DuraCoat it in a uniform color.

[@packingpreacher6901]

I would like to use it to paint the forend, stock, and grip of my AR build with that FDE so it will match the FDE flip up sights I have on it. Doesn't make much sence, but I was on a budget with no patience.

[@TheLateBoyScout]

I hear that!

[@shockershooter]

I've been thinking about painting my AR pistol and maybe my Ruger/Troy 10/22 mashup.

[@SargesAdventures]

Duracoat aerosol vs. Aluma Hyde II aerosol.... what do you prefer and wany?

[@timothysmith2101]

I'd use it to re-coat the blade of an Esse Junglas, & a couple tomahawk heads as a test run.

[@michaelschleifer9003]

Klean Strip cures painter's remorse.

[@mikespaeth6532]

I would dura coat a few of my tactical and survival knives plus my glock .45 I would love to take some of these existing knives and put a great color like FDE on them. It's always good to differentiate from the pack and dura coat is definitely the way to do it in my book! Would love to try the aerosol version!

[@kennethangell1416]

I'd like to dura coat my hi point 9mm carbine...flat dark earth would look awesome

[@Mrgunsngear]

Great overview.

[@TheLateBoyScout]

Thanks, sir.

[@RKHarm24]

Color my BCM pistol grip which is FG and a Black BCM butt stock. Rail covers are already FDE by ERGO and just to touch up some pieces. I also have a Kydex Black holster I would change to FDE. My BCM shorty foregrip direct attach is black and it would get the FDE colors. Magpul enhanced trigger guard is black but not for long if I have a can of Duracoat FDE. While it is curing I have my wife's Black and Magpul FDE furniture to run and gun. It is a SPIKE's Tactical from Aim Surplus. Even if I do not win, Thank you for doing this for someone, A Pay it forward. I have done it a couple of times, It made me feel real good.

[@rhondeaux51]

I have an M&P full size I would like to two tone

[@GearNut]

Awesome guns and great video. I would love to Duracoat my Springfield 1911 A1 and my Elzetta ZFL-M60 FLASHLIGHT.

[@thegreenman2030]

I bleed OD green not much of a FDE guy. That being said I would most likely duel tone my Glock 26 along with a grip reduction.

[@aznelite325]

some great information and it's great to know this exists if i want to use it for a project, as i don't have an airbrush or air compressor.

[@richschwartz8004]

I've been wanting to duracoat my pistol. It's a high point so even if I mess up it won't get any uglier. Lol. I do have to say for a cheap ugly gun I have never had one single issue. I think it would look cool in FDE. Thank you for the chance to win. God bless and stay safe.

[@TheLateBoyScout]

I like that idea.

[@MS2000LIGHTMARKERDISTRESS]

So I'm 13 so I can't enter but I'm gonna go buy one or two cans to put on my Mosin build and winchester model 70. Thanks for the inspiration!

[@richardorr9993]

i am in the process of stripping 2 of my Cold Steel Bushman knives and that flat dark earth would LOOK AWESOME on them.If i win i will post the finished product for all to see....

[@AHumanIAmNot]

ATI FX45 K... would love to Duracoat it in FDE

[@Sector001ked]

Brownell's Alumahyde II is much cheaper. The stuff is very tough, once it dries properly.

[@DontTreadOnMe9000]

I have a mossberg 500 slug gun and and old "stevens arms westpoint model 287" that needs some rust repair that would be great to coat with this.

[@px4sd477]

If it's flexible enough I would dura coat myself in flat dark earth as to match my SKS, PX4 Storm SD, and my 870.

[@vetbcrazy]

That would work just fine on my AR build. Gotta get some!

[@Darkxius]

I will use it on my Ruger SR40c

[@ZombieJester1129]

I would duracoat my Kershaw cqc 7s blade and maybe some of the surplus ammo cans I got.

[@TheLateBoyScout]

Awesome!

[@misfitactual6718]

I wanna coat my carry gun, my M&P Shield! Its nothing crazy, but something I use everyday, I think it would be pretty rad!!

[@zachwynn7670]

I just got a bushmastar ar and I would love to paint the fore grip and butt stock and maybe my optic

[@MichaelTravis12c27]

I'd use it for my son's M&P15/22.

[@MontyArchangel]

I would use it for a custom handmade survival knife I'm building. Roughly 6 inch cutting edge of 1095 high carbon. I live in the Pacific Northwest so ruct is a bit of a problem. Awesome vid on the pros and cons of the aerosol version

[@MontyArchangel]
