    I had a few questions I’ve been very interested in doing powder coat on my wife’s ar but the reviews on doing are all over the place. When doing you upper and lower was there any clearance issues?

    • @TicklerNick

      Nope, as long as you know what you’re doing and mask properly everything will go together perfectly. I’ve done 3 so far with no issues, however I will say cerakote is a lot more forgiving.

    When doing the lower what, if anything did you have to plug or tape off?

    • @TicklerNick
      @TicklerNick  2 роки тому +1

      Every little hole and opening. Lots of masking required with powder coat, cerakote doesn’t take much

      UA-cam won’t let me link anything gun related, but it was originally just a standard carbine upper with Magpul furniture. Took it off and put on a 15” Aim Sports hand guard

      If you plan on doing firearms, it’s a lot of tedious masking with powdercoat. Cerakote is easier to use on guns and typically it’s what you’ll see. People have mixed opinions on if powder is good for guns but at the end of the day as long as you mask it properly it’s just as good!

    What would ya charge to do a handguard.. I got one of the palmetto lowers that made fun of Joe biden a cpl yrs ago..finally building it..have a custom pistol grip being made..filled in all lettering and picture on lower with fingernail polish.. but I'd like the barrel and handguard powdercoated as ridiculous as possible.. orange purple green whatever..all the colors? Etc..just something stupid...

    • @TicklerNick
      @TicklerNick  2 роки тому +1

      Normal prices would be around $60 for the hand guard and about the same for a barrel. If you wanted the barrel done it would likely need to he cerakoted because it withstands heat a bit better

    Thanks for making this video’ your rifle turned out great. Im going to powder coat my 8.6blk build soon. How well does the powder coating hold up? Im only curious because I’m doing it no matter how well it holds up. The color I want isn’t available in the typical gun coatings plus I can buy a powder coating gun and the powder for less than what people want to cerakote guns where I live. I have access to a blasting cabinet and the oven so it won’t be too expensive.

    • @TicklerNick

      It holds up great! Be extremely cautious and tedious when you mask it off if you decide to powdercoat instead of cerakote. Powder is a lot thicker and if you don’t mask it properly it will mess up your tolerance and you won’t be able to put everything back together. If that scares you away from it, you could always buy an HVLP gun for cheap and cerakote it yourself with the same process, plus you won’t even need to blast or mask nearly as much. Powder isn’t the industry standard due to the thickness, but if you take your time it won’t give you any problems.
