Cerakote

Dark flat earth above, Tungsten below.

Never heard of this stuff called Cerakote, until recently.  Really popular with the firearms crowd for coating their frames for a fraction of a type 3 hard anodizing, which is very tough, not that cheap anodizing you see in AN fittings and stuff..  It's similar to powder coating since it needs to sprayed on and baked.  But it's much more durable and resists nicks and pitting and work well in high temps.  Got me thinking into using this stuff on wheels and various other parts.
