Finish

Just take a look at the picture to the (below). It appears to be some kind of bright stainless steel or polished chrome doesn’t it? It’s not though. It’s your gun after the guys in final preparation have finished with it. They have hand rubbed and polished on it so much that it looks like polished bumper chrome. This is what we mean when we say we put an emphasis on preparation. Next it goes to the guys below for them to work their magic. Shane applies a light bead blast using a very fine 180 grit glass bead to roughen the surface just a little to allow the Perma Kote™ to adhere better. Following that, Robert takes each little part and prepares them for the finish application.

After Shane (top right) finishes with the blasting, he takes the gun over to Robert (bottom right) and he checks each area of the surface to make sure it is ready to apply the Perma Kote™. You can see from the picture (above) how it looks when Robert gets it.

Robert (bottom right) inspects each piece to make sure the surface is rough enough to let the Perma Kote™ adhere to it. Once he is satisfied that it is, he starts out putting each individual part on alligator clips ready to hang for curing. Following that, he takes a HVLP (high velocity, low pressure) gun and begins applying the Perma Kote™ very carefully until he gets a satisfactory coating. Once the gun is complete, it’s off to the oven for low temperature curing.
