You didn't show s**t! You should show the application process!

I have a Remington 870, maybe I should duracoat it with Remington 870 black. haha. Great looking rifle, love them lever actions!
-
Looks nice keeping it black. Anything else would simply have looked tacky. Top job
-
a very tasteful non tactical looking duracaot. Not bad.
-
Duracoat looks great but it aint durable after a few trips to the range my 870 looks worst than before i duracoated it
-
Looks like it turned out well. From what I can tell, nice job.
-
What did it look like after the firs time it was loaded. Did the duracoat scrape off? I have to use considerable about of force to load my marlin 30-30 and the blueing is worn off on that 'door' where you load the cartridges.

Wow smithy, that turned out great, nice work man. I have the same rifle and planned on doing the duracoat so I got on here to get myself started. Glad I did. Thanks for the video and consider me impressed.

Wow, you mean you just spry this thing on and it works? It looks great!
how much should you take the gun apart and what shouldn't you duracoat

Really it's your call. I usually break the gun down to the point that I'm confident I can put it back together. Some tricky areas are the triger & hammer because they have multiple postions like the barrel break lever in this video. but instead of taking them apart sometimes you can just spray them, leave them 24hrs, move them to their other postion and spray that area again.

As far as what you should or shouldn't coat. I usually just spray everything external and maybe some "easy to get to things' that do not rub agianst each other. When I spray if the duracoat gets on things that need to rub or that might effect the function of the gun, then I just scrape it off with a razeror and exacto knife before it fully hardens.Duracoat does make a product for spraying internal parts called "Duracoat SL" the "SL" stands for self lubricating. I have not used the product yet.
