Marksmen know the value of keeping their firearms clean and often enjoy a customized finish. They also want products that do no harm to synthetics, ferrous metals, wood, stainless steel and alloys. Most people prefer no need for heating and baking their firearms which make DuraCoat Aerosol a perfect choice. Here are some points to consider when contacting a Lawrence, KS supplier who also offers Peel 'N Spray templates.
Some people like a smooth finish and others like some other type of texture. Just about any surface is possible with these products ranging from camo to a pearl texture. It is even possible to create layers of texture and then finish them off with a protective coating of the clear product to reduce dings and scratches.
One thing to remember is mixing this product with a hardener. It helps speed up drying time without reducing quality or appearance. Ratios of 12:1 is standard but for faster drying times slightly increase the amount of hardener. It also gives a higher gloss finish at about a 10:1 ratio. Read the directions on the product to make sure of the mixture.
When using stick on templates, use mineral spirits and a clean rag. The mineral spirits will not affect the finish of your project but will remove only the residual stickiness from the adhesive compound. When completed the surface is free of any sticky feeling and the degree of intended gloss is not adversely affected. Please remember to clean thoroughly the weapon before applying any clear coat product.
For the fastest drying time, many gun owners use a heat setting of 110 degrees F for about 1 hour to speed up the process and reassemble their weapons. Once the surface is completely dry most cleaners, abrasive solvents and lubricants will not harm the new finish. For best results allow three to six weeks for full drying and curing.
Keep in mind that DuraCoat is available in over 200 colors, including Clear and those 200 colors when mixed will match any color in the spectrum. The Aerosol Kit contains a spray can that easily allows mixing the dryer with the color mixture for perfect results and easy to access and clean up afterward.
Before getting started be sure to use a good cleaner to remove all the dirt and debris that accumulates, even if the firearms stored in a closet or gun bag. DuraCoat Cleaner dries immediately and leaves no residue or film thereby ensuring a smooth and attractive finish.
Please make sure to unload the firearm before starting any cleaning process, or customization and even then make sure the safety of on. Once the cylinder, magazine, and the chamber is empty, continue dismantling your weapon and place the parts in the order in which removed to make it easier to reassemble them, later.
There is no such thing as too much safety when dealing with firearms that use explosives. When cleaning and oiling guns use the proper tools to dislodge any debris especially inside where dirt often collects. Then use the very best grade products to clean, maintain and customize your entire collection.
