AR Shooters,
I use the spray can Duracoat on my hardware for the leather biz (making brass buckles subdued/black) Works pretty damn good with proper surface prep etc.
One of my projects is an AR, I did some function testing of my spare 20 and 30 rounders, some of them look like crap but work.
A 20 rounder was chosen for the test, check the photo out below. It was darn close to the looks of the 30 next to it. Easy application, a bit of baking (I just hang them next to the heater an use the IR temp gauge to keep them above 300F for a few minutes).
Link to manufacturer:
Good stuff with excellent results.
Have used KG Coatings “Gunkote” with the same results. Proper surface prep and a clean surface makes a big difference.
