Ceramic Coating FAQs

Cerakote is a very thin ceramic paint that is capable of withstanding very high temperatures (up to 1000°c for V Series) and is very resistant to abrasion. It is a high end, premium finish that can really elevate any product.

Cerakote ceramic coatings are applied with a spray gun and then cured in a oven to harden them. They require a good deal of knowledge and experience to apply correctly from initial surface preparation to consistent, even application and proper curing. We've spent a lot of time researching and testing to ensure that our finishes are second to none.

We are able to apply:

• C Series - Air drying ceramic coating that can be used on larger parts that won't fit in our oven.

• H Series - The go to for most parts that won't see extreme temperatures, brake calipers, valve covers, suspension components etc. Even suitable for the cooler parts of exhaust systems.

• E Series - An even thinner coating suitable for components where tight tolerance fit is important, sliding surfaces, screw threads etc.

• V Series - This is what's needed for VHT (Very high temperature) applications. V Series can withstand 1000°c so is perfect for exhaust manifolds and is available for coating piston skirts and crowns.

Any metal that can withstand the oven curing process. The surface also needs to be prepared to a high standard, which involves delicate media blasting, meticulous cleaning and more often than not degassing cycles in our purpose built oven.

Cerakote is available in a huge variety of colours and new colours can be mixed too. It's available in various finishes including metallic, crinkle, hammered and flat and different gloss values too.

We charge a flat rate of £60 per hour plus materials and a £10 per hour oven curing charge. However, Cerakote is a relatively quick process once the preparation is done and working in batches can save a lot of cost. Get in contact for a quote and to ask any questions.
