Wanna be my cerakote labrat? :D

 

.....er... on 2nd thought, after looking at the Krpytek pattern, I think you're better with a dipped decal finish.

Cerakote is a spray gun job. If you want an intricate came pattern, like Kryptek, expect to pay well over $500 or even $600 dollars to have someone make the pattern for you.

Hydrodipping is a LOT less expensive, and the detail in workmanship is a lot higher resolution.

Enjoy!

I wanted to dip so parts but not to sure on how durable something like this is???

As durable as the clear coat that is applied on top of it. Perhaps Cerakote MC-series clear....

what kinda of goo? Green goo yellow goo? Brown goo? Haha jk

yeah, I certainly wouldn't go through getting it cerakote / kryptek. Cerakote everything the base color, then hydrodipping over.

or cerakote it the base color, and then use other spray can type paints for the accents.

Easy is right. A base coat of Cera will ensure you gain all the benefits... still looking at about $500, unless you do some/all the work yourself.

Hmm... I'm wondering if you could apply it on a dry coat of cerakote THEN cure the cerakote. The activator is solvent based and turns the print sheet into "almost paint" which will bond to the uncured cerakote and become part of the cerakote before it's cured.
