Anyone familiar with Cerakote?
what about the air dry stuff is it as good ?
yes.
how to keep this short...
oven cure is a tad more forgiving in a less than perfect spray environment.
it is stellar in its chemical and corrosion resistance
sucks for UV protection, meaning it will fade in the sun over a period of time
takes 500 degrees before color change
very slick in some of the colors
air cure
very chemical and corrosion resistant
better UV protection
can accept a clear coat in most colors
500 degrees on some colors, 1800 degrees on others
bottom line, if you don't have a specific industry or government requirement for corrosion or abrasion resistance, or you're not taking it into the ocean for long periods of time, air cure is just fine.
if you are going for the low drag low viscosity, silky smooth finish for bearing surfaces or rapid moving parts...oven cure is better
