Does anyone around Houston cerakote the plastic pieces of a Benelli sbe (fore stock and butt stock) I recently had the action and barrel done but they wouldn’t do the non metal parts. Doesn’t look as good as I thought so I’m looking to have the rest done.

They actually have an air dry cerakote for this purpose. No heat needed.

All of it can be coated. Had my m2 done. Not in Houston though. Shop in Austin

This is incorrect, cerakote works great on polymers and we do it all the time. You just cure it at a lower temperature for longer than you would metal. The only thing you can’t do is rubbers.

Quackhunter, thanks for this information! I may have some work for you on another project I've been wanting to do.
I had a shotgun done (the metal external surfaces) and some pistolas. I knew the curing temp was pretty high on them. Didn't realize hard plastics could be done and cured at lower temp!

Yeah if you have any questions feel free to PM me, I work seasonally at Black Sheep Arms our of Austin and we do a ton of polymers and plastics. Cerakote actually adheres better to it than Metal. Small parts as well you can pretty much coat every screw and pin if you want, we do that quite often.
